Hi, I’m Catherine.
Mama of three. A Kentucky girl living in California. Here’s what I know: all kids can be great eaters and mealtime must be easy. I create simple, healthy recipes the whole family will love.
One Sheet Pan Shrimp and Vegetable Dinner
One Sheet Pan Shrimp and Vegetable Dinner is any easy, inexpensive weeknight dinner the whole family will love.
Making a full meal on one sheet pan is my favorite way to make dinner. It's super simple to make, and even better, super easy to clean up. We're all busy these days and want to spend more time with family rather than doing dishes, so anytime I can make a recipe that requires very little post-dinner clean up, I'm going for it!
One Sheet Pan Shrimp and Vegetable Dinner is great because you can choose what veggies to add that suits your family. We decided to go with peppers, squash, zucchini, broccoli and red onions, but feel free to switch it up a bit if you want. The blend of garlic with lemon juice is a classic combination that elevates the flavor of any veggie.
This recipe is great if you're looking for a healthy weeknight meal too. Besides protein, shrimp provide an impressive array of other nutrients. They're low in calories while being a great source of B12 and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Add tons of good-for-you veggies on top of that and you've got an incredibly delicious, healthy, family-friendly meal. It's a win win!
Like I said before, I love anything I can make on one sheet pan and pop in the oven. It's takes away so much stress for dinnertime. Some of my go-to recipes are Salmon Sheet Pan Dinner, Summer Chicken Sheet Pan Dinner, or even this Sheet Pan Pancake that's perfect for breakfast for dinner!
If you're looking for a easy, colorful and delicious weeknight family dinner I highly recommend making this recipe. Everyone will love it so much you might be making it multiple times a week! Let me know in the comments what you think or tag me on social media.
