For the last three months, I’ve really been working ahead recipe wise. It’s been pretty helpful because I now have months worth of content, I got to launch another blog, and I feel like I’m finally getting on top of some of the strictly business side of things. The only thing is – I’ve been waiting SO long to share this beauty with you!! Oh my gosh, Sheet Pan Fried Rice – let me count the ways!!

This Sheet Pan Fried Rice really is the answer to your prayers. It’s made easily on a sheet pan – so legit the world’s easiest cleanup. It’s packed with protein, carbs, fibre – all the things! The sauce is super yummy and you even mix it on the sheet pan. Then BAM – in the oven, and you have dinner for a few days! It’s probably the easiest meal prep with the least amount of dishes I’ve done in a while. I also love that it uses up some great pantry and freezer ingredients so it’s really perfect all year round.

Sheet Pan Fried Rice Ingredients

I love how simple the ingredients are for this dish:

  • Edamame
  • Tofu
  • Brown Rice
  • Green Onions
  • Pineapple (yasss)
  • Cashew pieces
  • Tamari or soy sauce
  • Oil (I used sesame)
  • Sriracha 

That’s it! love all of these ingredients and they work together to turn this into an incredibly filling meal. I think out of the whole list, my favourite ingredient is the CASHEWS! They genuinely shocked me and I loved the flavour and texture so much. You already know I’m a cashew addict, so I’m 100% putting cashews into every fried rice ever from now on.

Green Plate Club

This recipe is from my friend Kiersten’s new site: Green Plate Club! This isn’t sponsored (it is an affiliate link), but I knew immediately that I wanted to help her share this new fantastic service that I know would come in handy for so many of you guys. 

Green Plate Club is an online meal plan service that’s perfect if you’re like me and love plant-forward meals. Whether you’re always trying to figure out what to make next or just want to switch it, I highly recommend it. You get three full meatless meal plans every week (for recipes from Monday to Friday) a thorough grocery list and tips about your ingredients of the week in each one. The recipes not only taste amazing but also work with each other so that if you have leftover ingredients, you use them up in another dish. One of my fave parts about it is that she has options whether you’re vegan (like me), vegetarian or flexitarian. So it’s still meatless of course, but you can choose how many days work for you – and you still get ALL the recipes anyway! Total win, win. Go check it out!!
