A Canadian culinary treasure, Ricardo (Larrivée) has been offering delicious food to families for almost two decades through print media, television, and radio. His company offers everything from cookbooks (in both French and English) and a French-language magazine, kitchenware/kitchen accessories, as well as pantry ingredients. I enjoy recipes from Ricardo and his team of recipe developers because they understand the balance between the time and effort it takes to make delicious food and the time spent around the dinner table enjoying a meal with family and friends. Reading through the introduction to Sheet Pan Everything, his aim is clear: "But the best part about cooking with a sheet pan? It combines what we love to celebrate in the kitchen: simplicity and togetherness. When you place the pan in the centre of the table, everyone instantly relaxes, gathers around, and talks about their day. And it’s also a serious timesaver, as it takes only a few minutes to toss together the ingredients for a full and balanced meal —— giving you more time to enjoy with your loved ones." (7) And, in talking to my friends and family, what I've learned is that home cooks want to spend less, not more time in the kitchen, and our time around the family dinner table has become more important than ever. Not to mention, I am, like many home cooks, looking for different recipes to try because I'm starting to get sick of the "old standbys."

It is safe to say that since I started cooking from Sheet Pan Everything, I have made hundreds of the Vegetarian Lentil "Meatballs" because they are extremely delicious. It doesn't hurt that you can batch cook them and freeze the extras which can be reheated for future meals. These are multipurpose "meatballs" because they're tasty in anything -- I served them with spaghetti and marinara sauce, in wraps, and I've also eaten as they are when they're warm off the baking tray. I also appreciate that you don't need to cook any of the ingredients to make the balls. This is a recipe where a food processor is key -- I use mine to grate the zucchini, then I change the attachment so that I can purée the lentils, green onions, and zucchini together. After stirring in cheese, breadcrumbs, eggs, ground chia seeds, and seasoning, the "meatball" dough is ready to be rolled, then baked. Now that I've made batches upon batched, I've made them all sorts of ways -- I've used ground flax in place of the chia, I've changed up the ingredients by adding nuts and seeds when puréeing, trying different herbs/seasonings, and even omitting the cheese (this was by accident, but they still turned out deliciously). They bake up with a nicely textures crust and tender middle, which they retain when used straight from the freezer. Speaking of which, when I reheat them, I've used the oven whereas when my husband made supper he used the microwave. It is safe to say that this is a beloved recipe in my household that will probably get passed down through the generations (as an aside, they'll probably be referred to as "Granny's meatballs" eventually -- I hope Ricardo doesn't mind!)

The "meatball" recipe was the first one I made from the book and it got me on a roll! From there I've tried almost a dozen recipes and have found this to be such a useful cookbook, full of recipes that my family loves! What I appreciate the most is how the recipes are designed to be efficient and streamlined. It's not that dishes like pancakes, French Toast or pizza are that challenging but when you don't have to stand at the stove to flip anything or, you can rise your pizza dough stretched out on the sheet pan you'll bake it on, that's such a help to the home cook. It's never occurred to me that I could mix my pizza dough then put it directly on to a prepared baking sheet so that it could rise. This means no extra flouring to roll it out, which translates in having extra time to do other things! In no way do these time-saving techniques mean that corners are cut taste-wise. I'm happy to report that the pizza was delicious with its pillowy crust -- I think this technique has revolutionized the way I'll make pizza.

Sheet Pan Everything is organized into 7 chapters: Sheet Pan 101, Get Ready for the Week, Snacks, Weekdays, Brunch, Entertaining, and Sweets. As I mentioned earlier, one of the qualities that this book works towards is offering simplicity to the home cook. I found this to be true of the recipes as well as the way in which the book was written and designed. Each recipe is presented with ingredients and instructions but without an introduction or preamble. And, instead of an exhaustive index at the back of the book, an Index by Sections as well as an Index by Recipe Type are given. Photographs of every recipe, which is helpful to see what the finished dish will look like. Most importantly, the ingredients for each recipe are easy to source -- I didn't have to venture further than my local farmer's market and grocery store to find what I needed. In many cases, ingredients can be switched or substituted depending on preference and/or availability. When I made the Barley w/ Root Vegetables and Grilled Halloumi, I just roasted the vegetables I had on hand and, I realized we were out of mayonnaise when I went to make the dressing, so I used Greek yogurt as a substitute.

In the pages of Sheet Pan Everything from Ricardo, I have found lots of delicious recipes that my family loves and, I've learned different ways to streamline my time in the kitchen. Sometimes it can feel like the monotony of cooking meals every day is nothing but a drudgerous task but, with cookbooks like this which offer simple recipes, I feel a bit more encouraged at mealtime (I felt so encouraged, in fact, that I ordered a copy of Sheet Pan Everything for my mom because I wanted to pass on some of these recipes and feelings to her).

I love this cookbook! My first introduction to sheet pan cooking, it has a variety of recipes from breakfast to desert. Each recipe has an accompanying large photo so you can really see what it will look like cooked on the pan. Being a vegan, not every recipe fits my diet, but they can be adjusted to include vegetarian meats and cheeses. The recipes themselves lend well to substitutions, too.
I loved this cookbook so much, I purchased it (and the sheet pan liners) for everyone in the family last year.

Sections include: Getting Ready for the week (recipe are used in other recipes or can be used alone), Snacks, Weekdays, Brunch, Entertaining and Sweets.

Good variety/balance of dishes. Normal, whole food ingredients. Fairly simple (as sheet pan recipes should be) but nice attention to cook times. These recipes often have you cook something, then add something and cook longer. Photos for most recipes.

I've tried several recipes already, with more to follow. All have been delicious, however...actual preparation time has far exceeded the estimate provided, and the quantities produced (following ingredients as published) are considerably more than what will fit on one sheet pan. Several bowls are often used too, so do not think these recipes are of the "dump" variety, with just one sheet pan to wash. They are not! Quite yummy, though, and nice presentation.

Great recipes and info

Not only are the recipes great, your imagination is sparked to create your recipes. Knowing the temps and the times for things (e.g. different veggies) allows you to time when ingredients should be added to the sheet.

Great info for choosing the right pan or how to change your process based on your existing pan.

Ready to start cooking.

The snacks and brunch recipes look promising. The supper ones were full of things I don't eat (soy) or spices that I'd have to go and buy special (harissa). It did not seem like less work for the most part, either. A couple of the easy ones were so obvious I don't know why they made it into a recipe book - like drying apples to snack on. Meh is my overall impression.

There were only 2 recipes in this entire book that I think I can do, the rest have unobtainable ingredients in my grocery store, or else the recipe is too complicated and involves some baking which I am not familiar with. The two recipes are a Chickpea Snack and Caramalized Onions, so this book was not a good resource for me, but I got it from the library so no big loss.
