3 tablespoons quick-cooking oats, crushed
3 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts

Test Kitchen tips

Oatmeal's complex carbohydrates help your body release seratonin and improve your mood.

When you're shopping, buy wild-caught salmon if it's available. It has a significantly higher vitamin D content than farm-raised salmon.

Salmon is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, which can help reduce your risk of depression.

Just 3 ounces of salmon packs more than 100% of the vitamin D you need daily.
