Week 2: MOOD FOOD: Include one omega-3-rich food in your diet every day this week, June 8-14, 2020.
Omega-3 fatty acids are important for the structure and function of the nervous system. Deficiencies in omega-3s are connected to cognitive and mood disorders. Include omega-3-rich foods such as mackerel, salmon, herring, oysters, anchovies, flaxseeds, chia seeds and walnuts in your diet every day to give your brain a boost.

Forgot to take photo but had baked Pollack fish last night , lightly breaded with Italian bread crumbs and dredged in egg wash and topped with Parmesan cheese. Backed 400 oven . Was a little crisp as my husband was late getting home , so good !🐟
I always keep a variety of nuts and seeds in the pantry. I buy the ground flax seeds to easily mix them in my foods. I add flaxseed meal to my almond milk, smoothie or plain yogurt. I like to eat my walnuts in salads, with vegetables, and with some cottage cheese in the morning. I usually pair it with sunflowers seeds as well. Chia seeds are also very versatile and can be sprinkled in almost anything. They can also be used in baked goods like whole grain muffins, or used to thicken a dairy free hot chocolate. I even tried a recipe that used chia seeds to make a pudding base by leaving them overnight in the fridge in some almond milk.
