Simplify Dinner Time with Single-Pan Meals

It can sometimes be difficult to dedicate time and coordination to preparing and cleaning up after a meal. Single-pan dinners can simplify meal times and ease stress during a busy week. This no-sweat approach to dinner time ensures a quick and easy process, so you can spend more time and energy enjoying your food and the loved ones you share it with.

Using one pan to create a meal still leaves room for a diverse plate, and can be just as nutritious and satisfying as some more time-intensive meals. From the oven to the skillet, there are tons of great recipes out there for all palettes and dietary needs.

For an extra easy single-pan approach, use the oven. This eliminates the need to stand over a skillet on the stove, giving you the opportunity to relax and spend quality time with those around you. If using the oven, be sure your pan is oven-safe.
