Steps to make Legendary Pub Mac and Cheese:

Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease a large 3 qt or 4 qt baking dish and set aside. Combine shredded cheeses (NOT THE PARMESAN) in a large bowl and set aside.
Cook bacon in a separate pan and boil pasta one minute shy of al dente according to the package instructions.
Add bacon to plate with paper towel to absorb extra grease (Floppy/Crispy - doesn't matter.. whatever your preference is). Remove pasta from heat and drain. Set aside to cool while preparing cheese sauce.
Melt unsalted butter in a deep pot.
Whisk in flour over medium heat and continue whisking for about 1 minute until bubbly and golden.
Gradually whisk in the milk and heavy cream until nice and smooth. Continue whisking until you see bubbles on the surface and then continue cooking and whisking for another 2 minutes.
Whisk in salt and pepper.
Add two cups of shredded cheese and whisk until smooth. Add another two cups of shredded cheese and continue whisking until creamy and smooth. Add the remaining two cups of shredded cheese and "KEEEEEP WHISKIIIIIING!" (#alternativeursula) Sauce should be nice and thick.
Stir in the cooled pasta until combined and pasta is fully coated with the cheese sauce. Chop bacon into little bits and combine into the cheesy goodness.
Pour the mac and cheese into the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine panko crumbs, Parmesan cheese, melted butter and paprika and sprinkle over the top. (PRO TIP: add a little bit of fat sea salt crystals on top to give it that savory surprise, like that of a pretzel you'd order at that one downtown brewery) and bake the whole thing until bubbly and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve IMMEDIATELY. (To yourself, let's be honest)

Try Using Food to Improve Your Mood

Mostly, people have been taught to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and need to be avoided. But if your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. Soemtimes, comfort foods can be utterly healthy and good for us to eat. There are some foods that, when you consume them, could boost your mood. If you feel a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, are great for helping you combat depression. You need to see to it, however, that what you make includes the egg yolk. Whenever you want to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most essential part of the egg. Eggs, the yolk particularly, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are terrific for helping to boost your mood. This is because they help in bettering the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that affect your mood. Eat an egg and be happy!

Make several trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all great for helping to elevate your mood. This is possible because these foods have a bunch of magnesium which boosts serotonin production. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical that dictates to the brain how to feel at any given moment. The more you have of it, the happier you will feel. Not just that but nuts, particularly, are a terrific protein food source.

If you would like to defeat depression, try eating some cold water fish. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are high in DHA and omega-3 fats. These are two things that raise the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can seriously raise your mood.

Some grains are actually wonderful for fighting off bad moods. Teff, barley, millet, quinoa, etc are all wonderful for helping you feel happier. They help you feel full too which can really help to make your mood better. It’s not hard to feel low when you are starving! These grains can improve your mood as it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. You digest these foods faster than other foods which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel more pleasant, mood wise.

Green tea is wonderful for moods. You just knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This will improve your brain’s concentration while simultaneously relaxing the rest of your body. You likely already knew how easy it is to become healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know that it helps you to elevate your moods too!

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