1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat an 11x17-inch sheet pan with cooking spray.
2

Prepare stuffing: Stir the stuffing mix and water together in a bowl. Spread it over one side of the prepared sheet pan. Sprinkle cubed butter on top.
3

Prepare turkey breast: Mix the butter and poultry seasoning in a bowl; spread the mixture under and over the turkey skin. Place it next to the stuffing on the sheet pan.
4

Prepare green beans: Toss the fresh green beans with balsamic vinegar and olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
5

Prepare sweet potatoes: Prick the potatoes several times with a fork. Wrap each one in a damp paper towel, making sure to squeeze out any excess water. Microwave each potato separately until they yield slightly when squeezed, 4 to 7 minutes. Start with 4 minutes and check for tenderness, adding more time if needed. Set aside.
6

Prepare pumpkin pie: Cut off the top of the pie pumpkin and remove the seeds and pulp. Combine the pumpkin pie mix, evaporated milk, and egg in a bowl, then pour into the hollowed pumpkin. Wrap the whole pumpkin in aluminum foil, leaving an opening at the top. Place the pumpkin on the sheet pan with the turkey and stuffing.
7

Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes.
8

Remove from the oven and add the pre-seasoned green beans to a corner of the sheet pan in a single layer. Scatter the chopped pecans and cranberries over the stuffing.
9

Return the sheet pan to the oven for 15 minutes.
10

Meanwhile, mix the melted butter and brown sugar for the potatoes in a small bowl. Remove the paper towels from the microwaved potatoes; cut a slit down the center of each potato and divide the sugar mixture evenly among them.
11

Remove the sheet pan from the oven and place the sweet potatoes on the pan.
12

Return to the oven and bake for 10 more minutes.
13

Remove the sheet pan from the oven and add the frozen rolls to the pan. Top the green beans with French-fried onions. Place 3 to 4 marshmallows on each sweet potato.
14

Return to the oven and continue baking until the turkey is no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each half reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 5 minutes more.
15

Remove from the oven and transfer all dinner items to a serving platter. Top the turkey with warmed gravy and serve with cranberry sauce.
16

Return the pie to the oven until it is slightly jiggly in the center, about 25 more minutes.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
