4. Roll the bottom part of the wrapper over the filling.
5. Fold each side over the filling.
6. Roll the lumpia towards the last quarter of the end.
7. Wet your fingers with water and carefully spread the water over the last quarter bit of the wrapper. Imagine you are putting glue on a piece of paper.
8. Roll the lumpia over the watered end and so you now have a lumpia roll!
9. Do these steps for all the lumpia wrappers.
10. To cook: heat a frying pan on medium heat. Add cooking oil. Once hot, put in the lumpia one by one, careful not to overcrowd the pan.
11. Turn on each side for 1 to 2 minutes until golden brown.
12. Serve!! Optionally, you can cut up the lumpia into small bit size pieces for happier days :)
13. For a dipping sauce, combine equal parts soy sauce and vinegar. Add a couple of red chilli.

How to Boost Your Mood with Food

Mostly, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and have to be avoided. At times, if the comfort food is a sugary food or some other junk food, this is very true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be totally healthy and it’s good for you to consume them. There are some foods that basically can improve your moods when you eat them. When you are feeling a little down and need an emotional boost, try some of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually great at beating back depression. You should make sure, though, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, the yolks in particular, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to boost your mood. This is because they increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Try eating an egg and be happy!

Put together a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and so on. This is because these nuts are rich in magnesium, which helps to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that directs your brain how you feel all the time. The more you have of it, the better you will feel. Not only that but nuts, particularly, are a great source of protein.

Cold water fish are good if you are wanting to feel better. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are rich in DHA and omega-3 fats. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that improve the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly raise your mood.

Grains can be excellent for fighting a bad mood. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are great at helping you be happier. They help you feel full as well which can truly help to improve your mood. It’s not hard to feel low when you feel famished! The reason these grains can improve your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps bring up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, elevates your mood.

Your mood can really be helped by green tea. You were just waiting to read that in this article, weren’t you? Green tea is rich in an amino acid called L-theanine. Studies prove that this specific amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while at the same time calming your body. You were already aware that green tea could help you feel so much healthier. Now you know that green tea can elevate your mood also!

As you can see, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you want to feel better! Try some of these tips instead.
