    There are times where the idea of cooking feels like too much. Luckily, there are sheet pan dinners that do the work for you. Just toss everything onto one pan, pop it in the oven, and let it roast while you kick back or tackle something else. The best part? Cleanup is a breeze, and you still end up with a cozy, home-cooked meal that looks (and tastes) like you put in way more effort than you did.
