Push the leek and shallot up against the edge of the pan, and raise the heat to medium-high. Add the fresh mushrooms to the center of the pan. Cook for several minutes without stirring, then flip them over and cook until nicely browned. I have also shared other recipes on the blog where I use mushrooms such as my "Pasta with mushroom, tomato & red pepper sauce" and my "Porcini mushrooms, thyme & rosemary risotto".

To begin with this particular recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have simple mushroom and leek risotto using 7 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

  10. Repeat adding stock until the rice is tender and creamy. If you need more stock, just add boiling water (or a bit of white wine).

Try Using Food to Elevate Your Mood

For the most part, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and should be avoided. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods may be extremely healthy and good for you. There are some foods that, when you eat them, could improve your mood. If you feel a little bit down and you need a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.

Eggs, you might be astonished to discover, are fantastic at combating depression. You should see to it, though, that what you make includes the yolk. The yolk is the most crucial part of the egg in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, the yolk especially, are stuffed full of B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to improve your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that control your mood. Try eating an egg and jolly up!

Put together a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all wonderful for raising your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that dictates to your brain how you feel all the time. The higher your levels of serotonin, the better you are going to feel. Nuts, on top of elevating your mood, can be a super protein source.

Cold water fish are good if you wish to be in a better mood. Herring, trout, tuna, wild salmon, and mackerel are all full of omega-3s and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that improve the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s the truth: consuming tuna fish sandwiches can really help you battle your depression.

Grains can be good for driving away a terrible mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all actually wonderful for helping boost your happiness levels. They help you feel full as well which can actually help to better your mood. Feeling famished can be a real downer! These grains can help your mood elevate as it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps raise your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, raises your mood.

Your mood could actually be helped by green tea. You just knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is rich in an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have found that this specific amino acid can actually stimulate brain waves. This helps improve your mental acuity while relaxing the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you feel healthier. Now you are aware that green tea helps you to elevate your moods as well!

So you see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are terrible for you to feel better! Go with these suggestions instead!
