EatingWell's Editorial Guidelines Share Tweet Pin Email Trending Videos Photo: Ali Redmond These cozy casserole recipes are healthy and tasty meals that are packed with fiber. With at least 8 grams per serving, these casseroles reap the nutrient's benefits like supporting gut health, heart health and weight loss, if that is your goal. Recipes like our Nacho Cauliflower Casserole and Cheesy Sweet Potato & Black Bean Casserole are the comforting main dishes you'll want on your dinner table tonight. 01 of 17 Nacho Cauliflower Casserole View Recipe Photographer: Victor Protasio, Food Stylist: Ruth Blackburn, Prop Stylist: Josh Hoggle This cauliflower casserole is inspired by nachos and stuffed with tender roasted cauliflower, sweet red pepper and brown rice. Salsa helps bind the ingredients together, along with melted cheese. Crushed tortilla chips on top add crunch. Serve with the suggested garnishes, or add your own favorite toppings to complete the dish. 02 of 17 Cheesy Sweet Potato & Black Bean Casserole View Recipe Ali Redmond A cozy, cheesy casserole is classic comfort food. We amped up the nutrition by including plenty of nourishing veggies. Black beans provide powerful plant-based protein while the sweet potatoes offer up a healthy dose of vitamin A, an antioxidant important for vision and immunity. 03 of 17 Baked Spaghetti View Recipe Photographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Ali Ramee Think of this baked spaghetti as a cousin to lasagna. Instead of layering ingredients, spaghetti is tossed with ricotta cheese, ground beef, veggies and marinara sauce before it's topped with cheese and baked until set. Serve this family-friendly casserole with a Caesar salad on the side. 04 of 17 Eggplant Tortilla Casserole View Recipe This layered casserole is inspired by classic cheese enchiladas, minus the fuss of rolling and stuffing individual tortillas. You'd never guess that within this comforting Tex-Mex casserole hides a layer of thinly sliced eggplant. The thin slices become tender when roasted and add a subtle savory note. 05 of 17 Chicken Parmesan Casserole View Recipe We took the best parts of chicken Parmesan--ooey-gooey cheese, crispy breadcrumbs and plenty of tomato sauce--and spun them into an easy family-friendly casserole. We simplified it by skipping the breading on the chicken and, instead, loaded the top of the casserole with cheese and breadcrumbs. Serve with a crisp green salad to complete the meal. 06 of 17 Cheesy Black Bean & Quinoa Skillet Casserole View Recipe Rachel Marek This Southwestern-inspired one-skillet casserole is stuffed with quinoa and plenty of fresh vegetables. Sharp Cheddar cheese flavors the filling and adds a layer of ooey-gooey melted cheese on top. 07 of 17 Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato & Roasted Red Pepper Casserole View Recipe Sara Haas This healthy vegetarian casserole is a standout on any table. Crushed red pepper provides a little kick to this creamy main dish. We love the ease of jarred roasted red peppers, but if you have time, feel free to roast them yourself. 08 of 17 Beef & Black Bean Nacho Casserole View Recipe Sara Haas Hominy adds a chewy texture in this healthy casserole, which draws flavor inspiration from nachos. Crushed corn tortilla chips add a crunchy layer to complete the dish. Mild, medium and hot green chiles all work well, so choose what you like best depending on your heat preference. 09 of 17 Easy Chicken Enchilada Casserole View Recipe Katie Webster Casseroles make perfect meal-prep dinners, and this enchilada version is no exception. The whole casserole can be built and left to hang out in the refrigerator for up to three days—just bake it off on a busy night and you have a healthy, easy dinner on the table in no time. The quick homemade enchilada sauce in this recipe is great when you don't have any of the canned sauce on hand; just season crushed tomatoes with spices and salt for an instant enchilada sauce. 10 of 17 Vegetarian Quinoa & Squash Casserole View Recipe An aromatic mixture of garlic, paprika, cumin, coriander, allspice and cayenne flavors this vegetarian quinoa and squash casserole recipe. Frozen squash is a super-easy topping. 11 of 17 Shrimp and Cauliflower Bake View Recipe This quick and easy seafood casserole gets bright flavor from fresh dill and feta cheese. 12 of 17 Beans & Greens Enchiladas View Recipe Any type of canned bean will work in these easy layered enchiladas, but our favorite combination is a mix of black and pinto beans. Serve as a vegetarian main dish or as a tasty side for roasted pork or chicken. 13 of 17 EatingWell's Eggplant Parmesan View Recipe Here we bake breaded eggplant for crispy results with fewer calories to boot. This makeover of the classic eggplant parmesan recipe was originally developed by our Test Kitchen in 1995 and got an update in 2020 for our 30th anniversary issue. 14 of 17 Potato Enchiladas View Recipe Frozen potatoes, often labeled diced hash brown potatoes, make these healthy enchiladas come together quickly. Feel free to sub in sweet potatoes for an added boost of vitamin A, if desired. 15 of 17 Sloppy Joe Casserole View Recipe Like sloppy Joes? Then you'll love this sloppy Joe casserole recipe. This kid-friendly dinner has the classic sloppy Joe flavors kids love, while parents will like all the veggies that are packed in to make it a healthy meal. 16 of 17 Vegetarian Enchilada Casserole View Recipe Think of this vegetarian enchilada casserole as a veggie-packed Mexican-inspired lasagna with corn tortillas standing in for the noodles! If your peppers are mild and you like heat, opt for spicy pico de gallo. This easy vegetarian dinner recipe is sure to become a new family favorite. 17 of 17 Florentine Lasagna Roll-Ups View Recipe Photography / Fred Hardy, Styling / Ruth Blackburn / Audrey Davis Think portion control with these individual lasagna roll-ups. Leftovers are great for lunch the next day. Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback! Tell us why! Other Submit
