Before you jump to Vickys Roasted Parsnip Nut Loaf, GF DF EF SF NF Vegan Christmas recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Turn to Food to Boost Your Mood.

Mostly, people have been taught to believe that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and should be avoided. At times, if your comfort food is basically candy or other junk foods, this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be completely nutritious and it’s good for you to eat them. There are some foods that, when you eat them, may better your mood. When you feel a little down and need an emotional pick-me-up, try a couple of these.

Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and so on are all great for helping to boost your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that tells your brain how you feel all the time. The more serotonin in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Nuts, in addition to raising your mood, can be a superb source of protein.

See, you don’t need to stuff your face with junk food when you want to feel better! Try a couple of of these tips instead.

Steps to make Vickys Roasted Parsnip Nut Loaf, GF DF EF SF NF Vegan Christmas:
  1. Pre-heat the oven to gas 6 / 200C / 400°F and lightly oil a baking tray. Put the parsnips in a pan of boiling salted water for 5 minutes then drain. Lay them on the greased baking tray and give them a drizzle of oil and honey or agave and bake for 20 minutes until just softening. Leave the oven on when done for baking the finished loaf
  2. Meanwhile, bring the swede, sweet potato and potato to boil in salted water, then simmer until slightly softened and drain
  3. Also fry off the onion and garlic in some oil until the onion is translucent, then add to the pan with the swede and potato
  4. Cook off the spinach in some salted water for 5 minutes until wilted then drain and add to the swede pan
  5. When the parsnips are done, add them to the swede pan with the spinach, parsley, lemon juice, nuts and grated carrot, salt & pepper to taste
  6. (If you need to roast the peanuts and hazelnuts yourself do so before roasting the parsnip etc at gas 4 / 180C / 350°F until they turn a shade darker and the skins split. The skins will be easily rubbed off)
  7. Mash everything together well. You should be able to form a moist ball in your hand with the mixture. If it's too wet, add some breadcrumbs or porridge oats to the mixture. Season to taste, you may wish to add more honey/agave
  8. Lightly oil an ovenproof dish or line with foil. Spoon the mixture in, pat down and cover with some more oiled foil and bake for 30 minutes then remove foil and continue baking for a further 15-20 minutes until the top starts to turn golden brown
  9. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing and serve hot with a nice salad, green veg or with some boiled potatoes and vegetable gravy
  10. You can also bake in a loaf tin or it's nice to put into individual ramekins or madeline moulds. Adjust the cooking time to 45 minutes covered and 15 uncovered if you use a loaf tin and reduce to 35 minutes total time if using individual mini loaf moulds
  11. This is a bit 'all about the timing' but it's worth it. It's a great alternative to meatloaf
