The ingredients needed to make Vickys Artichoke & Spinach Pinwheels, GF DF EF SF NF:

1. Get 400 grams can of artichoke hearts, well drained
2. Prepare 450 grams fresh spinach leaves
3. Prepare 8 tbsp mayonnaise, see my egg-free recipe link below
4. Take 50 grams parmesan-style cheese, I use Violife (soy-free vegan)
5. Take 1 1/4 tsp garlic powder
6. Take 1 1/4 tsp onion powder
7. Prepare 1/2 tsp black pepper
8. Make ready 450 grams puff pastry, see my free-from recipe link below

They last for quite a few days with no problem in the frig. I then set each artichoke in microwave proof (cereal size) bowl and nuke them for a minute or two to knock the chill off right before we. The globe artichoke (Cynara cardunculus var. scolymus), also known by the names French artichoke and green artichoke in the U. S., is a variety of a species of thistle cultivated as a food.

Steps to make Vickys Artichoke & Spinach Pinwheels, GF DF EF SF NF:

1. Chop the artichoke hearts and put into a large bowl. Make sure they're drained well
2. Put the spinach in a large pan with 2 tbsp water. Put the lid on and steam for a few minutes until wilted
3. Drain and tip the spinach out onto a clean tea-towel. Squeeze the excess water out of the spinach by wrapping with the towel and pressing down. You may need to use 2 towels for this
4. Chop roughly and put into the bowl with the artichoke
5. Add the mayo, parmesan, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper. Mix well and adjust the seasonings if desired - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/332798-vickys-eggless-mayonnaise-gluten-dairy-egg-soy-nut-free
6. Halve the pastry and set one half aside. Roll out into a rectangle around 25cm wide and 15cm tall. The exact measurement doesn't really matter - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/356517-vickys-puff-pastry-gluten-dairy-egg-soy-nut-free
7. Spread half of the artichoke mixture on top of the pastry leaving an inch at one of the long sides clear
8. Start to roll the pastry over like a jelly/swiss roll. I find it easiest to cut the pastry in half top to bottom for more control
9. Roll right to the bottom and pay extra attention to the bottom end sticking well so it doesn't pop open in the oven
10. Wrap the pastry 'sausages' in clingfilm and put in the freezer for an hour. Repeat with the set aside pastry and artichoke mixture
11. Preheat the oven to gas 7 / 210C / 425°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper
12. Unwrap the pastry and cut into slices around 1cm thick. I got 10 discs from each quarter of rolled pastry
13. Place on the lined tray, glaze the pastry with a little milk of choice (I use light coconut milk) and bake for 20 minutes or until golden and puffed
14. You can keep the filled pastry frozen for 3 months before baking if you don't need this amount all at once
15. The mixture also makes a gorgeous dip or topper for breadsticks, crackers etc if you mix in just enough sour cream to loosen the mixture to your own preference. I use coconut cream soured with lemon juice or cashew cream as linked below - - https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/333300-vickys-vegan-sour-cream

The edible portion of the plant consists of the flower buds before the flowers come into bloom. The budding artichoke flower-head is a cluster of many budding small flowers (an inflorescence), together with. Artichokes look like the armored tanks of the vegetable world—an impenetrable defense of shield-like leaves and thorny tips.

Foods That Can Make Your Mood Better

Many of us believe that comfort foods are terrible for us and that we have to stay away from them. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be altogether healthy and it’s good for you to eat them. Several foods honestly do boost your mood when you eat them. If you seem to be a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.

Eggs, you might be surprised to find out, are fantastic at battling depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, especially the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can actually help you boost your mood. This is because these vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–run better. Try eating a couple of eggs to jolly up!

Make a trail mixout of various seeds and nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all fantastic for helping to raise your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that directs your brain how you feel all the time. The higher your serotonin levels, the better you will feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a great source of protein.

If you would like to fight depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all rich in omega-3 fats and DHA. 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 basically help you overcome depression.

Grains can be wonderful for driving away a bad mood. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all great for helping you feel better. These foods can help you feel full for longer too, which is a mood improver. It’s not hard to feel a little bit off when you feel hungry! The reason these grains help your mood so much is that they are not hard for your body 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 more pleasant, mood wise.

Green tea is wonderful for moods. You were simply anticipating to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this specific amino acid can actually stimulate brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while simultaneously calming the rest of your body. You were already aware that green tea could help you feel so much healthier. Now you are aware that it can help raise your mood also!

So you see, you don’t need to consume all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Try a couple of of these tips instead.
