Instructions to make Brad's flank steak w/ pumpkin risotto & smoky cauliflower mash:

1. Lay steak out on a cutting board. Crust heavily with the salt and spices. Both sides. Set aside while prepping rest of dinner.
2. Do all of these steps simultaneously.
3. Place cauliflower in a small pot, half cover with water. Add chicken bouillon. Bring to a simmer. Stir often until water is almost gone. About a 1/4 inch left. Add rest of the cauliflower ingredients and mash. I usually keep a little texture to it and not mash it into a puree.
4. Heat 2 lg fry pans and a grill.
5. Place steak on the grill. For my rare I grill over fairly hi heat about 6 minutes per side. But prepare steak to your liking. When done cooking, let meat rest 6-8 minutes before slicing.
6. Melt butter for the saute. Add leeks and mushrooms. Season with the same thing the steak got seasoned with. Saute about 5 minutes. Add chick peas. Saute until leeks and mushrooms are done. Deglaze pan with cream sherry. Cook until almost completely evaporated. Remove from heat.
7. Melt butter for risotto. Add rice. Cook until rice just starts to brown. Add wine. From this point you pretty much need to stir constantly. When wine gets absorbed, add chicken stock 1 cup at a time, stirring until absorbed each time. When you add the last cup of stock, add pumpkin puree, 1 tsp salt, and nutmeg. Stir until rice is tender. When rice is tender, remove from heat. Add 1 tbs butter and Parmesan cheese. Stir until incorporated.
8. When everything is done, arrange on plates. Slice flank steak across the grain and on a bias. Under a half inch thick. Serve steak over leek saute. Garnish risotto with more parmesan. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

Learn How to Elevate Your Mood with Food

Mostly, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and have to be avoided. Sometimes, if the comfort food is candy or some other junk food, this is true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be completely healthy and it’s good for you to eat them. There are several foods that actually can improve your moods when you consume them. When you are feeling a little down and are needing an emotional boost, try some of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be really wonderful at dealing with depression. You must make sure, though, that what you make includes the yolk. Whenever you would like to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most vital part of the egg. Eggs, the egg yolk particularly, are stuffed full of B vitamins. B vitamins can actually help you elevate your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that affect your mood. Eat an egg and feel happier!

Make a trail mixfrom a variety of seeds and nuts. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and so on. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that directs your brain how you feel at all times. The more you have of it, the better you will feel. Nuts, in addition to improving your mood, can be a super protein source.

Cold water fish are excellent if you are wanting to feel happier. Cold water fish including tuna, trout and wild salmon are chock full of DHA and omega-3s. These are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can really help you overcome depression.

It’s easy to overcome your bad mood when you eat grains. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all truly excellent for helping raise your happiness levels. These foods can help you feel full for longer too, which can help your mood too. Feeling famished can truly make you feel terrible! The reason these grains help your mood so much is that they are not difficult for your stomach to digest. You digest them more quickly than other foods which can help boost your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel better, mood wise.

Green tea is excellent for moods. You just knew it had to be in here somewhere, right? Green tea is loaded with an amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid induces the production of brain waves. This helps focus your mental energy while at the same time making the rest of your body more relaxed. You probably already knew it is not difficult to be healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know it can help improve your mood as well!

Now you realize that junk food isn’t necessarily what you have to eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Try some of these instead!
