Instructions to make Kahlúa Bread Pudding:

2. Spray 8x8 pan with cooking spray

4. Mix Kahlúa, heavy cream, cinnamon and optional spices in a 4 cup container
5. Add sugar and mix thoroughly until it is dissolved. Taste and add more sugar if not sweet enough for you.
6. In a separate container scramble eggs. You need enough to bring your custard to 4 cups.
7. Add eggs to Kahlúa/cream mixture and blend thoroughly.
8. Pour custard mixture over bread cubes.
9. Sprinkle craisins and almonds evenly over bread/custard.
10. Press bread cubes down into the custard until all the bread is soaked. If using a dense bread you may need to let it sit for about 30 minutes to let the custard soak in completely.
11. Bake for 50 to 70 minutes. It will rise well above the pan rim. It's done when it feels dry on top and doesn't sound squishy when pressed in the middle.
12. For optional Ganache, heat cream to about 190°F in stainless steel bowl over a pan of boiling water.
13. Remove cream from heat and put chocolate chips into got cream and add a pinch of salt. Do not stir. Let sit for about 10 minutes. Gently stir with a whisk until smooth and shiny.
14. Turn pot of water down to a low simmer and return the bowl of Ganache to hold warm until needed. DO NOT let any water get into Ganache.
15. Drizzle warm Ganache over bread pudding just before serving.

Use Food to Boost Your Mood

Mostly, people have been taught to believe that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and have to be avoided. Often, if the comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is true. Other times, comfort foods can be perfectly nourishing and good for us to consume. A number of foods really do raise your mood when you eat them. If you are feeling a little bit down and you need a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, are great for helping you battle depression. You need to see to it, though, that what you make includes the yolk. Every time you wish to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most crucial part of the egg. Eggs, the egg yolk particularly, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are great for helping to raise your mood. This is because these vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that tell you how to feel). Eat an egg and be happy!

Put together a trail mixfrom a variety of seeds and nuts. Your mood can be elevated by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. This is possible because these foods have a bunch of magnesium which raises serotonin production. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical substance that tells the brain how to feel at any given point in time. The more serotonin in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not just that, nuts, in particular, are a great protein food source.

If you want to overcome depression, try eating some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all high in omega-3 and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that improve the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can greatly elevate your mood.

Grains can be good for driving away a terrible mood. Barley, millet, quinoa, etc are great at helping you have a happier mood. These foods fill you up better and that can help improve your moods also. It’s not hard to feel low when you feel hungry! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are not difficult to digest. You digest these grains faster than other foods which can help promote your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel better, mood wise.

Your mood could really be helped by green tea. You were just anticipating to read that in this article, weren’t you? Green tea is high in a certain amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this specific amino acid can basically stimulate brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while at the same time making the rest of your body more relaxed. You already knew green tea could help you be better. Now you know that it helps you to raise your moods too!

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