ABC Sheet Pan Dinner

This post is sponsored in conjunction with AppleWeek. I recieved product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of AppleWeek recipes. All opinions are my own.


Sheet pan dinners are all the rage right now.  I love how easy they are to make, and also to clean up.  It's also a great way to use up various veggies you have on hand  As I trimmed brussels sprouts with my paring knife, I wondered, how would apples work as part of a sheet pan dinner?

I cubed up a large apple, peeled some carrots, and added them to the pan with the brussels sprouts.  I considered turkey sausage for the protein, but then remembered that I had some boneless skinless chicken breast I'd defrosted and not cooked. I cubed that up and added to the pan too.

I sprinkled the apples with cinnamon.  I drizzled olive oil over the chicken and veggies, then hit them with some kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper.  To finish, some dried thyme on the chicken and carrots. I popped the pan in the oven and cooked it for 25 minutes at 400 degrees.  Your time will vary based on the veggies you use and the size they are cut.


Easy as ABC! Apples, brussels sprouts, carrots & chicken, of course! I served it over some a brown rice and quinoa mix.  This version makes 2 servings, but it can easily be doubled or tripled.  So delicious, and you can't beat the easy clean up!

So many great recipes being shared this week, I hope you are enjoying them as much as I am! Don't forget to enter the giveaway for your chance to win a prize package from Swiss Diamond and the other amazing #AppleWeek Sponsors!  Info on the prize packs can be found here.

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites

I'm a huge fan of the Dunkin Donuts Power Breakfast sandwich, so when I started seeing ads for the new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites I stopped in and gave them a try.  They were delicious, but of course, I knew I could make them at home.  I started with the whites of six eggs. You can use pasturized whites if you don't want to do the whole separating, finding a use for the yolks thing.  I beat them up with some salt and pepper. Next up, the tomato and spinach.  I used grape tomatoes, seeded them and then chopped them into 1/4" pieces. I like baby spinach, and I took about 10 leaves and chopped those up into 1/4" pieces as well. I added that to the egg mixture.  When you pour it into the pans, be sure that it all gets evenly distributed.   They bake up pretty quickly, around 9 minutes or so.  Dunkin gives you two egg bites, the mini donut serving size is three. I pop them in ziplocs in the fridge and just pull a bag and reheat them in the microwave for a quick

Copycat Dunkin Donuts Bacon and Cheddar Omelet Bites

Since I already came up with a version of Dunkin Donuts new Egg White & Veggie Omelet Bites for myself, I decided to make the other variety that they are offering, Bacon & Cheddar, for my husband. Super simple.  Beat up some eggs with salt and pepper.  Add in some shredded cheddar and a slice of bacon cut into 1/4" pieces (I used kitchen shears).  Bake them for about 9 minutes in sprayed mini donut pans. They baked up light and fluffy.  The bacon stayed crisp and there's just the perfect amount of cheese.   I split them up into portions in zip top bags and that way we can just grab a bag and warm them up. My husband laughed when I told him 3 is the serving size.  I'll definitely be doubling the recipe next time!

Double Layer Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Back in the day I used to bake from home for extra money.  This was one of the most popular items.  Cake mix sizes have changed and if you're using the 15.75 ounce ones bake them in 8" pans. If you want to use the 9" rounds, you can also use this cake mix upsizer to make up the difference between the old and new cake mix sizes.  If the layers are too thin, you'll never be able to flip and stack them without a mess. Be sure to keep track of which pan has the pineapple rings and cherries in it and which doesn't so that you can easily turn them out onto the plate in the right order.    Double Layer Pineapple Upside Down Cake Print With Image Without Image Author: Jolene's Recipe Journal Ingredients 10 ounce jar maraschino cherries, drained 1/2 stick butter 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 8 ounce can pineapple slices 8 ounce can crushed pineapple with juice 1 package yellow cake mix (15.75 ounces) Instructions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
