I know I'm not alone in this...
Raise your hand if you don't enjoy cooking
Raise your hand if you enjoy the clean up process even less
I know I'm raising my hand to both!!
That's why cooking motto is: quick & simple! The less time I have to spend in the kitchen the better!
And that is where sheet pan meals come to the rescue. Just one pan is all you have to clean up! (ok there is a little more but still a heck of a lot less!)
Here is a yummy recipe to add in to your meal prep rotation
