This  brain-savvy snack is perfect to enjoy before bed,
since it will help you to fall asleep and stay asleep.

Walnuts protect brain neurons and enhance glymphatic function
(note the shape of walnuts; it looks like the two hemispheres of the brain).
What is the glymphatic system? It's the newly discovered brain waste disposal system that occurs during sleep. When walnuts are combined with pears, whose skins are rich in powerful anti-inflammatories, this snack will provide the perfect combination of healthy glucose, protein and fat to nourish your brain, enhance your slumber and boost your brain power.
Ingredients

Butter 1 tbs.
Pears 4
Raw walnuts (handful) 
Raisins (handful)
Maple syrup 1 tsp.
  
Directions 
"	?? Grease a glass (Pyrex) baking dish with butter. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Wash and dry the four pears. Slice them down the middle and scoop out the seeds, making a small center in the pears to hold raisins and walnuts. Place the pears (cut-side up) in the baking dish. 
??  Take a mixture of raw walnuts and raisins, and place them in the hollowed-out area of each pear. 
?? Drizzle a few drops of maple syrup over each of the pears. 
??  Bake uncovered for 30-45 minutes.
??  Add a scoop of yogurt or drizzle coconut milk over the warm pears.  
Sweet Dreams!
