Instructions to make Easy on the Stomach! Soy Milk Hot Pot for a Late Night Dinner:
  1. Start by putting all the ☆ ingredients in your pot. Thinly cut the kombu with scissors before you add it. Next, roughly chop the Chinese cabbage and green onions.
  2. Add the Chinese cabbage and green onions to the pot from Step 1, cover with a lid and turn the heat on. At first it'll be almost overflowing like this picture.
  3. After it has been steaming for about 5 minutes, the volume in the pot will have shrunken down like the photo. Add pork and mushrooms and then cover with a lid again and let it simmer on low flame for another 5 minutes.
  4. At this point, the pork should be fully cooked and the Chinese cabbage should be nice and soft. Now, turn off the heat and wait for your husband to come home!
  5. Once your husband says he's on his way home, reheat the pot from Step 4 and add soy milk. Be careful not to let it boil. Also add the tofu and greens at this point.
  6. There are many variations of soy milk, so taste the hot pot broth and add salt as needed.
  7. At my house, I season this very mildly. Try it once even if you think it might be too mild and see what you think. The sweetness of the Chinese cabbage will fill your stomach.
  8. But if you still think it tastes too plain, pour ponzu or dab a little yuzu pepper paste and eat.

Foods That Make Your Mood Better

A lot of us have been trained to believe that comfort foods are terrible and should be avoided. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this can be true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be altogether nourishing and it’s good for you to consume them. There are several foods that, when you consume them, may improve your mood. When you are feeling a little down and are needing an emotional boost, try a few of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, are wonderful for helping you fight depression. You should be sure, however, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the most essential part of the egg in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, the egg yolk especially, are stuffed full of B vitamins. B vitamins can genuinely help you raise your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that affect your mood–work better. Eat an egg and feel better!

Make a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all terrific for helping to raise your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling at all times. The more you have of it, the better you will feel. Not just that but nuts, particularly, are a great protein source.

Cold water fish are good if you would like to be in a better mood. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are chock full of DHA and omega-3 fats. DHA and omega-3s are two things that promote the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s the truth: eating tuna fish sandwiches can actually help you overcome your depression.

Grains can be wonderful for overcoming a bad mood. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all excellent for helping you be in a happier state of mind. These grains can help you feel full for longer also, which can help your mood too. It’s not hard to feel low when you are starving! The reason these grains help your mood so much is that they are easy to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps promote a rise in your glucose levels which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.

Your mood could really be helped by green tea. You were sure green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is loaded with an amino acid called L-theanine. Studies have discovered that this amino acid essentially stimulates brain waves. This will improve your brain’s focus while simultaneously loosening up the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you feel healthier. Now you know that applies to your mood too!

So you see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are not good for you to feel better! Try some of these tips instead.
