The ingredients needed to make Rice Cereal Bars with Peanut Butter:

1. Take 50 grams Peanut butter (unsweetened)
2. Take 200 grams Marshmallows
3. Make ready 300 ml Peanuts
4. Get 800 ml Puffed rice cereal (pon-gashi)
5. Take Optional:
6. Take 135 grams White Chocolate
7. Take 40 ml Heavy cream

Instructions to make Rice Cereal Bars with Peanut Butter:

1. Combine the chopped peanuts and rice cereal. I measured each with a measuring cup before combining.
2. Put the marshmallows and peanut butter in a bowl, and microwave for 2 to 3 minutes until melted. The marshmallows will puff up.
3. Mix the peanut butter and marshmallows together rapidly. It will deflate and become a sticky cream.
4. Put the peanuts and rice cereal into the bowl with the marshmallows and mix to combine. It will becoming sticky and stringy like natto, and will cool fast and start to harden, so work as quickly.
5. Put the mixture into a mold (I used a Tupperware container) lined with parchment paper. Press down on it hard to form into a rectangle. Cut when cooled.
6. Form golfball-sized balls of with any of the mixture that doesn't fit in the tin.
7. Optionally, coat the top of the bars with white chocolate. Warm the chocolate and cream in the microwave to melt.
8. Mix well, and spread evenly over the surface of the hardened cereal. Chill for about an hour in the refrigerator until set.
9. Cut into whatever size you like and enjoy.
10. In the U.S., Kellogg's Rice Krispies are the standard puffed rice cereal to use. It's hard to get in Japan, so I used puffed rice (pon-gashi) instead. I found it in the snacks corner of a 100 yen shop.
11. I used Skippy Creamy Peanut Butter.

Discover How to Elevate Your Mood with Food

A lot of us have been trained to think that comfort foods are bad and to be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is basically candy or other junk foods, this is true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be totally nutritious and it’s good for you to consume them. Some foods really do improve your mood when you consume them. When you are feeling a little down and are in need of an emotional pick-me-up, try some of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be really terrific at fighting back depression. You must see to it, though, that what you make includes the yolk. Whenever you want to cheer yourself up, the egg yolk is the most important part of the egg. Eggs, the egg yolk particularly, are rich in B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be fantastic for elevating your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that dictate your mood. Consume an egg and jolly up!

Make a trail mixfrom different seeds and nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all helpful for improving your mood. This is because these foods are rich in magnesium, which helps to raise serotonin production. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that tells your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more serotonin you have, the more pleasant you will feel. Not only that, nuts, particularly, are a great protein source.

Cold water fish are wonderful for eating if you wish to combat depression. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all full of omega-3 fats and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s the truth: consuming tuna fish sandwiches can truly help you battle your depression.

Grains can be great for driving away a terrible mood. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are great at helping you feel happier. They help you feel full too which can actually help to better your mood. It’s not difficult to feel low when you feel famished! The reason these grains are so wonderful for your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest and process. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your blood sugar which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.

Your mood can truly be helped by green tea. You knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is loaded with an amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid induces the production of brain waves. This helps raise your mental acuity while relaxing the rest of your body. You probably already knew it is not difficult to become healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know that green tea can elevate your mood as well!

As you can see, you don’t need to consume all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Try a few of these hints instead.
