As far as enjoying the flavors of Chicken Saltimbocca vegetarian-style, I like your cannellini bean idea and would like to offer two more suggestions. 1) Substitute zucchini or yellow squash for the chicken. Cut the squash lengthwise into ½-inch thick planks, dip them in flour (shaking off any excess), then in egg wash or plain soymilk and finally in panko bread crumbs. Sear in one tablespoon each olive oil and butter (or butter substitute) for about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Make the pan sauce as directed, but add a few teaspoons chopped fresh sage at the end. Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon. 2) The other idea is to again substitute the zucchini or yellow squash for the chicken and replace the prosciutto with vegetarian bacon strips (tempeh bacon strips would probably not work well here). Wrap one piece of bacon around the squash and secure two leaves of sage to the bacon with a toothpick. Dredge lightly in flour and cook according to the recipe. I hope this helps! Please let us know what you think. @ Michelle: Thank you for watching the Secret Ingredient and for your comment.

Maybe it's the sage and buttery white wine with canelli beans! I’m trying to think of a way to enjoy these flavors, vegetarian style! Maybe it’s the sage and buttery white wine with canelli beans!
