40+ One Pan Recipes using pantry staples- perfect for when you are short on time or don't want to make a grocery run!

 

Life can be quite unpredicatable can’t it? While we cannot prepare for every possibility out there it does usually help to feel that we can be in control of some things.

I’ve included 40+ ONE PAN recipes that can be made with basic pantry staples like canned goods, rice, beans, pasta, tortillas, and such. Of course these recipes have other ingredients but they are all quite basic and easy to make.

I’ve found something for everyone with kid friendly, gluten free, low carb, keto and vegetarian options. No matter what your family prefers, there is a quick and easy one pan recipe to fit the bill!

What are Pantry Staples?

This category is simply things that are regularly found in the average person’s home pantry. So this can refer to different spices, meats that one regularly has on hand (or in the freezer) or jarred or canned items. Obviously these things vary from home to home, but you’ll be surprised by how many things you have ready to make a meal already in your house! This list of 40+ One Pan Recipes using Pantry Staples will make use of ingredients you forgot you had!

Are these One Pan Recipes healthy?

Yes! All of these recipes are completely gluten free, so everyone in your house can enjoy them! Several of these recipes are also keto or low carb, making them a great healthy choice. I’ve also included a number of vegetarian options, so you will definitely be able to find something to please everyone in your house with this list! If you’re in the market for a new baking pan set, this two-piece set is one of my favorites!
