They are nice and they look wonderful. Mushroom risotto with crispy prosciutto is something that I have loved my entire life.

Using asian mushrooms, lemon zest, lemon thyme and a porcini mushroom infused stock, then topped with crispy baked prosciutto shards, this risotto was heavenly.

A lot of us believe that comfort foods are not good for us and that we should avoid them. Often, if your comfort food is a sugary food or some other junk food, this is true.

These B vitamins are great for helping to improve your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that affect your mood.

Make a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera are all terrific for helping to boost your mood.

The more serotonin you have, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Not only that, nuts, in particular, are a terrific protein food source.

These are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain work a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight back depression.

Grains can be excellent for overcoming a terrible mood. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all wonderful for helping you feel better. They help you feel full also which can really help to better your mood. It’s not difficult to feel a little bit off when you feel hungry!
