HOW TO MAKE SHEET PAN CHICKEN PARMESAN

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone

Part-skim mozzarella reduces fat while maintaining texture.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has a high smoke point and is healthier.

bread crumbs

🥗Healthier: panko

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Panko gives a lighter texture, while crushed crackers are often cheaper.
