Anyone else find that the instructions for cooking for 4 are frequently terrible? I cooked this one tonight and the instructions have you split to two sheet pans (one for potatoes, one for chicken and green beans). There is no universe where 4 chicken breasts and the doubled portion of green beans fit the way they should on one sheet pan. So frustrating!

Our neighbors who get the 4 portion option, cook it like it is the two portion option, but just double it.
They say that the four portion instructions don’t work all the time.
I made that last night and had the same problem
While we always get the 2 person meal, I sometimes notice that they don’t double the ingredients for 4 people where I think they should.
I only get the 2 portion size and I often split things out onto more sheet pans. I know there are different sizes of sheet pans. I think the ones they use must be bigger than the ones most regular people have.
We get the 2 person meals and I add ingredients to make enough food to feed 4 plus leftovers for my wife to take to work. I just follow the 2 person recipes instructions but add a little more of this or a bit more of that.
We do the 4 meals and I have a half sized sheet pan that I always use for the meat. The veggies/potatoes usually fit fine on one regular sized pan and the two are small enough they can sit side by side on the oven rack so they cook the same.
The chicken breasts I get are like half the size of those, always.
