I just spent a good long while searching through my archives for the words “sheet pan” because I already know that I have energy enough this week for ONE PAN and no more.

There’s no reason for the lack of energy. Just, you know, the usual meal-planning dread and dismay. 

If you have a favorite one-pan meal, I would be delighted to hear about it. (Omitted from today’s list are two favorites:  sheet pan Cuban chicken, which I heard about from Ernie a million years ago and which is delicious but which is similar to something we ate this weekend, and sheet pan chili chicken with sweet potatoes, which is scrumptious but has as an essential component a cilantro yogurt sauce.)

Dinners for the Week of May 15-21

• Sheet Pan Tandoori Chicken and Cauliflower: This is exactly what I want to eat this week, but the marinade contains yogurt. So… I am either going to try a non-dairy yogurt or I will omit the yogurt entirely. 
• Sheet Pan Teriyaki Salmon with Green Beans: I don’t love roasted green beans, but green beans are plentiful at the grocery store right now and this is so easy I hardly have to think about it which is a quality I am prioritizing more and more often these days. I may swap the salmon for chicken; we’ll see. 
• Sheet Pan Garlic Butter Chicken and Potatoes: This has feta, but I can omit it from my portion. I don’t know if I’m in the mood for potatoes, either, which makes this an odd choice. But I figure I can swap in broccoli or zucchini and it will be just as tasty. Or perhaps I will scrap the entire recipe and go with this recipe for Mediterranean Chicken and Veggies instead.
• Summer Chipotle Chicken Salad with Cilantro Dressing: This will be my reach meal this week – maybe I can aim to make it this weekend? It just sounds SO fresh and summery.
