Fettuccine with Artichokes and Smoked Salmon
Healthy, because
Even smarter
Nutritional values
Artichokes owe their unmistakable, tangy aroma to the bitter substance cynarin. Cynarin helps to lower cholesterol levels, supports the liver in its detoxification work, and activates the flow of bile, while other artichoke elements are beneficial for the eyes. Salmon has protein and many beneficial fatty acids within it, making this a well rounded meal.
You can always substitute fettuccine with other pastas like brown rice pasta, chickpea pasta, or wholewheat pasta.

Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet. Cook the artichokes, deglaze with the broth and simmer over medium heat until the liquid has evaporated. Stir in evaported milk and creme fraiche.
