7. Chicken Parmesan Casserole

Skip the frying—this casserole layers marinara, breaded chicken, and mozzarella for an easy, bake-and-serve version of the Italian favorite.

Monthly Highlight: Feels fancy, tastes indulgent, but is secretly super simple.

Bonus: Zucchini Chicken Casserole (Low-Carb & Lovable)

A lighter choice for those months you want to balance things out. This casserole uses zucchini noodles or slices, lean chicken, and a creamy, cheesy base that still feels indulgent.

Why It Works: A guilt-free favorite that doesn’t sacrifice comfort.
