Chicken with Lentils and kale, black olives and balsamic glaze

When comfort food is as lifting as a ray of sunshine...

   Kale, one of the most nutrient-dense foods, tops the ANDI Score system with a thousand points. Extremely rich in Folate, another dopamine booster, and many minerals, kale is by far one of my favourite vegetables (that grows freely in my garden).
Vitamin B-12, found in chicken, helps the body make GABA, a soothing neurotransmitter.
Black olives are rich in Copper, Iron, Vitamin A and E, and Fibre, but also good fats, such as Oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid, recognized to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, plus a decent proportion of Omega-3, well-known for their action on the brain and anti-inflammatory properties.
Lentils are also packed with Folate, Iron, Protein, Potassium, Vitamin B-6, and Zinc.
Zinc plays a important role in immune system functions, wound healing, DNA synthesis, and cell division.
The high Fibre content of lentils may help lower cholesterol and reduce blood sugar levels after a meal.
