Steps to make Saltimbocca w/Fettucine Alfredo & Asparagus:
- Start a pot of salted water for the pasta.
- Assemble all ingredients.
- Prep vegetables before beginning to cook the chicken.
- Preheat oven to 200°F Fahrenheit. Preheat dinner plates.
- Wash & dry the chicken. Place between plastic wrap and pound to 1/4 " thick.
- Arrange the prosciutto on top of the chicken pieces. Arrange the sage leaves on the prosciutto. Use toothpicks to hold the sage on.
- Dredge the chicken bundles in flour. Shake off any extra flour.
- Heat half of the oil in a skillet. When shimmering, add 3 bundles, sage side down. Cook on medium high for about 3 minutes. Turn carefully and cook for 3-5 minutes more. Transfer to the preheated oven. *** Start the pasta now*** Enlist a helper to stir & watch the pasta and to start the steaming water for the asparagus. Also start step 9 now. Cook the next 3 chicken bundles and transfer to the oven. Set drippings aside until step 12.
- Start this step at the same time as the pasta. If you have an electric skillet, it would help to relieve the congestion at the stove. Add olive oil & butter to a separate skillet. When shimmering, add the shallots. Cook for 1 minute then add mushrooms & cook till mushrooms sweat or about 6 minutes.
- Add the Marsala and stock. Cook uncovered on medium high for about 3 minutes. Near the end add the spinach, parmesan & lemon juice. Add the flour/stock and bring back to a boil. Add the heavy cream. Blend well. Thin or thicken the sauce with stock or cream. Taste for seasoning, i.e. lemon, salt & pepper (can use a lot of pepper). Also, you can use more parmesan if your heart can take it.
- While the Alfredo is cooking, steam the asparagus.
- Drain the pasta and add to the alfredo sauce. Fold in and heat until the desired temperature.
- Divide the pasta & sauce between the 6 plates and serve the chicken & asparagus on the side. Spoon the Saltimbocca sauce over the chicken.

Foods That Make You Happy
A lot of us believe that comfort foods are not good for us and that we need to keep away from them. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. At times, comfort foods can be utterly nutritious and good for us to consume. There are several foods that, when you consume them, can boost your mood. When you feel a little down and are in need of an emotional boost, test out a few of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, are fantastic for helping you combat depression. You should be sure, however, that what you make includes the yolk. When you want to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most vital part of the egg. Eggs, especially the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are terrific for helping to improve your mood. This is because the B vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–work better. Eat an egg and feel happier!
Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and so on are all fantastic for helping to elevate your mood. This is possible as these foods are high in magnesium which raises serotonin production. Serotonin is a feel-good substance that tells the brain how to feel at any given moment. The more of it you have, the happier you are going to feel. Not just that but nuts, particularly, are a terrific protein food source.
Cold water fish are great for eating if you wish to fight depression. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly boost your mood.
Some grains are actually wonderful for repelling bad moods. Barley, millet, quinoa, etc are terrific at helping you feel better. These foods can help you feel full for longer too, which is a mood improver. Feeling famished can be awful! These grains can elevate your mood since it’s easy for your body to digest them. You digest them more quickly than other things which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.
Green tea is fantastic for moods. You knew green tea had to be in this article somewhere, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while at the same time making the rest of your body more relaxed. You probably already knew it is not difficult to become healthy when you consume green tea. Now you know that green tea can improve your mood too!
So you see, you don’t have to turn to junk food or foods that are not good for you to feel better! Try a few of these instead!
