    How many servings of vegetables do you eat each day?  Last year I realized I was not cooking many vegetables for my family.  So in the fall I started to focus on recipes that included more vegetables with recipes like these:

    • Turkey Stuffed Pepper
    • Avocado Egg Salad
    • Sausage Soup with Vegetables
    • Minestrone Soup

    I hope I am not alone in this, but we joke that my husband has the palate of a 12-year-old.  It has been an adventure to find foods that are good for us and that he will eat.  We started with baby steps, simple swaps like sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes or cauliflower rice instead of white rice.

    Chicken Broccoli and Sweet Potato Sheet Pan Dinner

    I love this Chicken Broccoli and Sweet Potato Sheet Pan Dinner recipe not only because it is delicious, but because it is one pan.  That is my type of clean up.  This year I have gotten better about meal prepping so I clean and chop most of my vegetables and chicken on the same day.  So, this meal is literally 1 pan and some storage containers that I put into the dishwasher.   We say that whoever cooks, does not have to clean, but my version of cleaning up and my husband's version are very different so the fewer dishes the better for all of us.

    I served it last week when my dad came over for dinner and he loved it too.  It was so sweet to watch three generations all enjoying a healthy meal that took me just over 30 minutes to make.  We served it over vegetable pasta.  You could eat it over a version of pasta, vegetable rice of just by itself.

    Ingredients for Chicken Broccoli and Sweet Potato Sheet Pan Dinner

    • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
    • 3-4 cups of broccoli, fresh or frozen
    • 1 large sweet potato, cubed ¼ inch
    • 1 onion, chopped
    • 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 3 Tbsp. nuts, chopped
    • ⅓ cup oil
    • 1 ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ½ teaspoon pepper

    How to Make Chicken Broccoli and Sweet Potato Sheet Pan Dinner

    • Pre-heat oven to 375
    • Line a baking sheet or dish with parchment paper
    • On the pan, combine broccoli, sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, nuts.  Drizzle with Mazola® Corn Oil. Add Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.

    Tip: I used frozen broccoli.  Simply rinse it to help defrost.  It saves on chopping time.  I also used mixed nuts instead of just one type.  Use your favorite.

    • Cover with foil and bake for 12 minutes
    • After 12 minutes remove from the oven and add your chicken.  Toss everything together and over with foil again.  Cook for another 8 minutes.
