Chicken Parmesan is an italian classic. The basics of it are:

• Noodles
• Marinara
• Breaded chicken
• Mozzerella cheese

This dish can be made vegetarian:
Sub out chicken for eggplant, tofu, paneer with same breading
Short on time? Premade breaded vegetarian protein of your choice (gardein nuggets)
Be mindful when breading eggplant, you want to do the eggplant before you bread the chicken so you don't accidentally cross contaminate the items 


This dish can be made gluten free:
Skip flour step in breading process, skip panko or use gluten free panko
Use gluten free noodles or use zucchini noodles/ spaghetti squash


This dish can be made vegan:
Use a firm eggplant or tofu 
Sub eggs in breading process for a light misting of oil
Omit parmesan in breading mix
Utilize cashew cream sauce for topping or premade vegan shreds
Feeling adventurous? Make your own vegan mozz 


This dish can be made low carb / keto:
Omit flour and panko in breading step. Egg wash protein and roll in herbed parm mixture
​Use zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash for the noodles

This is the spicy chicken parm recipe (link at top of post) made vegan by omitting the egg, parm, and mozz. I made a cashew cream sauce that stood in for the cheese.
