These 3 Easy Sheet Pan Recipes Are Fall Meal Goals

Summer cooking is all about fast and fresh, but now we're ready to slow things down to cooked and comfortable for fall. The coming months mark the beginning of comfort food season with crusty casseroles, cheesy-baked pastas, warmly stacked lasagnas, and much more. And, even though we are definitely ALL about a dish that tastes slow-cooked, the idea of finding all that time to spend in the kitchen makes us want to go out to eat. So, what's a big comfort food-lover with little culinary patience to do come autumn? Just sheet pan it.
