5 Healthy Sheet Pan Dinner Ideas

One-pot meals have always been the dinnertime go-to for busy families who need a meal on the table fast. But one-pot meals aren’t always talked about in the same sentence as other words like “light meals” or “healthy dinner options”. One-pot meals, and especially sheet pan dinners, can be healthy, quick, and savory. Here are five recipes—all of which can be made on a half sheet pan—that prove that’s true.

1. Roasted Cauliflower Steaks With Tabbouleh

For a long time, cauliflower was one of the most underrated vegetables in the kitchen. But recently, this gluten-free, low-carb ingredient has become the healthy substitute for everything from potatoes to pizza dough. In this recipe, cauliflower is the star of a Mediterranean feast complemented by chickpeas and a tabbouleh salad topping. Roasting cauliflower is as easy as chopping, seasoning, and setting the timer.

4. Roasted Vegetable Toasts With White Bean Hummus

The best part about this recipe is that it can be a main dish or a healthy party appetizer, depending on the size of your toast. Quickly prep veggies in a bowl, then roast them on a sheet pan for about 20 minutes. Then warm up sliced bread and top it with an easy, homemade white bean hummus and your cooked veggies. Filling enough for a meal, but easy enough for a fun party app.
