  2. Prep the soup. Put 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the finely chopped garlic in the earthenware pot and turn up the heat.
  3. When the garlic is fragrant, add the canned tomatoes, oregano, 2 cups (400 ml) of water and soup stock granules.
  4. Add ketchup to season. Taste, and adjust with salt and pepper. The broth should be on the salty side since the vegetables will dilute the soup as they cook.
  5. Once the soup is ready, enjoy the hot pot at the dinner table. The root vegetables are parboiled, so all you have to do is to make sure the meat is cooked through.
  6. Add some Tabasco and grated cheese to taste. If the hot pot is for adults, you could add Tabasco to the soup itself.
  7. When all the meat and vegetables are eaten, make a 'risotto' with the leftover soup. Rinse the cooked rice briefly to remove the stickiness.
  8. Put the rice in the soup and simmer until the flavors have permeated. Add the pizza cheese. Turn off the heat and put a lid on. When the cheese has melted, it's done.
  9. Add some parsley and black pepper to taste, and eat the 'risotto' while piping hot. It's flavorful and delicious!
  10. If you use pasta instead of rice, I recommend boiled penne.

Turn to Food to Boost Your Mood

Most of us have been trained to think that comfort foods are not good and should be avoided. At times, if the comfort food is a sugary food or some other junk food, this is true. Other times, however, comfort foods can be completely healthy and it’s good for you to consume them. There are some foods that really can raise your moods when you eat them. If you seem to be a little bit down and in need of an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.

Eggs, you might be amazed to learn, are fantastic at combating depression. Just see to it that you do not throw out the yolk. Whenever you want to cheer yourself up, the egg yolk is the most essential part of the egg. Eggs, the yolk especially, are high in B vitamins. B vitamins can really help you raise your mood. This is because the B vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that tell you how to feel). Consume an egg and jolly up!

Build a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be elevated by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is called the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling day in and day out. The more of it in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a fantastic source of protein.

Cold water fish are great if you would like to be in a better mood. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two substances that promote the quality and function of the grey matter in your brain. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can basically help you overcome depression.

Some grains are really great for driving away bad moods. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all good for helping you feel happier. These grains can help you feel full for longer as well, helping you feel better. Feeling hungry can actually make you feel terrible! These grains can help your mood elevate since it’s easy for your body to digest them. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps kick up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, raises your mood.

Your mood could truly be helped by green tea. You knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have shown that this amino acid essentially stimulates brain waves. This helps raise your mental focus while calming the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you feel healthier. Now you know that green tea can improve your mood too!

See, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Try these suggestions instead!
