Steps to make Chicken Marinara:

  2. Preheat oven to 425°. Place rack on lower shelf.

  4. Cover one piece of chicken thigh at a time with dry ingredients
  5. If you are using chicken breasts, you will want to butterfly them first. This is a neccessary step.
  6. Spray glass dish with cooking spray.
  7. Place one chicken thigh in dish. Place slice of swiss cheese on chicken and fold chicken in half. Use a toothpick if needed.
  8. Continue with the rest of the chicken.
  9. (Chicken breast option) This is why you need to butterfly the breasts if you use them instead of thighs.
  10. Now we put this in the oven for 30 minutes
  11. Watch so the chicken does not burn.
  12. DING! Take the chicken out, spoon on the marinara. Again, spoon on the marinara. You don't want to drown the chicken.

  14. Turn the oven down to 350°
  15. Back in the oven for 15 minutes.
  16. Last step, remove the toothpick if you used one and enjoy!

Remove from pan and keep warm. Add mushrooms, garlic, basil, and Italian seasoning. Stir in spaghetti sauce and red wine. Put one of the fried chicken cutlets on top of the basil, followed by another spoonful of sauce, then a second layer of mozzarella. Place the second chicken cutlet next, followed by a third layer.

Try Using Food to Elevate Your Mood

In general, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and have to be avoided. At times, if your comfort food is essentially candy or other junk foods, this holds true. Other times, comfort foods can be utterly healthy and good for us to eat. Several foods honestly do elevate your mood when you eat them. If you feel a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be really great at fighting back depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the egg yolk. When you would like to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most crucial part of the egg. Eggs, specifically the egg yolks, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can be terrific for lifting up your mood. This is because these vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–work better. Consume an egg and feel better!

Make several trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all helpful for improving your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that dictates to your brain how you feel at all times. The higher your levels of serotonin, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Nuts, along with improving your mood, can be a super protein source.

Cold water fish are excellent for eating if you are wanting to combat depression. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are chock full of DHA and omega-3 fats. DHA and omega-3s are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s the truth: eating tuna fish sandwiches can really help you fight your depression.

Some grains are truly excellent for fighting off bad moods. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all truly great for helping boost your happiness levels. They can help you feel full for longer also, helping you feel better. Feeling starved can be terrible! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are not hard for your stomach to digest. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps raise your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, elevates your mood.

Your mood could really be helped by green tea. You were sure green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has discovered that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while also relaxing the rest of your body. You likely already knew it is not difficult to be healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know that it helps you to raise your moods as well!

See, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you wish to feel better! Try several of these instead!
