Steps to make Pan Fried Salmon with Creamy Maitake Mushroom Sauce:
- Shred apart the maitake mushrooms. Thinly slice the onion.
- Lightly season the salmon with salt and pepper and dust with some extra flour (not included in the ingredient list). Pan fry on both sides until golden brown.
- Put the butter and a little vegetable oil in a frying pan. Add the onions and stir fry a little, then add the mushrooms and continue stir frying. When the onions and mushrooms have wilted, sprinkle in the 1 or 1 1/2 tablespoons of flour.
- If you add the flour after you've stir fried the onions and so on instead of cooking it with butter alone, lumps are less likely to form.
- Add the milk and soup stock cube and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Heat until the sauce is just simmering, stir and it's done. Pour over the cooked salmon to finish.
- Use less flour if you want a thinner sauce.
- I usually make an extra portion of this (salmon and sauce), and use it the next day on pasta for my lunch.
- Add the following to the leftover sauce to make the pasta dish: A little spinach, a little milk, grated cheese, and 1 portion of pasta.
- Cook the pasta. In the meantime, flake the salmon and stir-fry.
- Thin out the sauce a little by adding milk. (Use cream instead for an even tastier version.) Season with salt and pepper, and add some grated cheese.
- Just before the pasta is done, add the spinach to the cooking water. You can boil it separately if you like.
- Mix the cooked pasta with the sauce and it's done. It's a chore to make this pasta from scratch, but with leftover sauce, you can prepare a lunch for yourself in no time.

Foods That Make Your Mood Better
Most of us have been taught to think that comfort foods are bad and to be avoided. But if your comfort food is candy or junk food this can be true. Soemtimes, comfort foods can be very nourishing and good for us to eat. There are several foods that, when you eat them, may better your mood. When you feel a little down and are in need of an emotional pick-me-up, try some of these.
Eggs, you may be astonished to find out, are great at fighting depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the yolk. Whenever you would like to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most important part of the egg. Eggs, the yolks particularly, are loaded with B vitamins. These B vitamins are great for helping to improve your mood. This is because they help in bettering the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that dictate your mood. Try to eat an egg and feel a lot happier!
Make some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be raised by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and other types of nuts. This is possible because these foods are high in magnesium which boosts serotonin production. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that tells your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more of it you have, the better you are going to feel. Not only that, nuts, in particular, are a great source of protein.
If you would like to battle depression, try eating some cold water fish. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all high in omega-3 fats and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight back depression.
It’s not hard to drive away your bad mood when you eat grains. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are excellent at helping you feel better. They help you feel full as well which can really help to improve your mood. Feeling famished can truly bring you down! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest and process. You digest them more quickly than other things which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.
Your mood can really be helped by green tea. You knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea is rich in a particular amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies show that this particular amino acid can actually induce brain waves. This helps sharpen your mental energy while simultaneously relaxing the rest of your body. You likely already knew it is not hard to get healthy when you consume green tea. Now you know that applies to your mood too!
Now you know that junk food isn’t necessarily what you should eat when you wish to help your moods get better. Test out these suggestions instead!
