Can I cook different foods together on one pan?
Yes. Just make sure the ingredients have similar cooking times. If something cooks faster, add it halfway through the cooking process.
How do I prevent food from sticking to the pan?
Use parchment paper, foil, or a light coating of oil on the baking sheet. These methods help prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
