Sheet Pan Mediterranean Chicken and Vegetables is that something you didn’t know you needed in your life! Healthy and delicious marry together to give you supper time bliss. We have all had those cravings where we just want someone else to cook for us and have something really good. Here, we show you how you can get that easily right from your own kitchen!

Restaurant Quality At Home

There are all kinds of things I love to share with you that give you that restaurant feel from your own kitchen. For example, we have given you, BEEF PASTA BAKE, HASHBROWN SAUSAGE CASSEROLE and LOUISIANA CRAB CAKES just to name a few! These are great options to get that restaurant feel at home. But just like with restaurant food, sometimes they are not the greatest if we are watching what we eat.

A New Way of Thinking

Since embarking on my own lifestyle change journey, I have tried to rethink my food choices. I have found that a healthy balance removes the diet mindset and changes things. So I have decided this year to share with you a few of the things I have done to help me on my way. This re-thinking of food and the ingredients we use has been a game changer and helped me out of the “diet” way of thinking. Recipes like this and my LIGHT AND HEALTHY CHICKEN POT PIE, I hope illustrate how easy eating well can be! Let’s get to it!

Ingredients

Simple, easy ingredients for this one. You could substitute frozen veggies for the fresh if you needed to. And if you have some need to know how to prep those fresh ones for the freezer, you don’t want to miss our post on HOW TO FREEZE FRESH VEGETABLES.

Tips and Tricks

Can I use another kind of Protein ?

Yes! To keep the recipe almost the same, turkey tenderloins work very well. Beef and seafood may require different cooking times. If you check no matter what you are using every 10 minutes or so, each one should come out perfect! Get Creative!

What Can I substitute for Feta

You have many options here. Feta and blue cheese are great options for low carb or calorie count. A light cheese like a low fat cheddar or even plain mozzarella would work well too. Any other fancy cheese will add to your calories or fat so always use in moderation to keep it healthy.

Would it be better to use NON FAT ingredients?

Not really. We need some healthy fat in our diet to fuel our bodies. Often, NON fat items are latent with hidden sugars to make up for the fat. Learn to read your labels or just go with low fat options instead!

  1. Beautiful, but so bland. Squash has such wayery, bland flavor, as does chicken breast, of course. This needs some spark to provide enough flavor to make it call for bite after bite.

    1. Hey Barbara! Just curious, have you made this recipe or are you just guessing it would be bland? Would love to offer some insight and assistance if you did make it.
