Tips from Elisa & Ellen: Sheet pan dinners are a great technique to get simple meals on the table quickly during your busy week. Use this recipe as a template and swap in other other protein options such as chicken, shrimp, halibut, or tofu. Additional vegetable options include parsnips, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, or delicata squash. For fast and even cooking, cut these starchier vegetables into 1-2 inch pieces before adding to the pan.
