To begin with this recipe, we must prepare a few components. You can have temari nigiri bento using 7 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Temari Nigiri Bento:

- Take the hot white rice, and using your desired fillings form into rice balls. Wrap the cut seaweed and crab sticks around the rice balls, as shown in the photo. Wrap the decorated onigiri in cling film, then press down to secure the decorations in place.

- These onigiri are quite big, so I had to connect extra crab sticks together to wrap them.
Foods That Can Make Your Mood Better
Mostly, people have been taught to think that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and must be avoided. At times, if your comfort food is made of candy or other junk foods, this holds true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be really nutritious and good for you. There are several foods that basically can raise your moods when you eat them. If you seem to be a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try some of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, are wonderful for helping you battle depression. You should make sure, however, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The yolk is the most essential part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping elevate your mood. Eggs, particularly the egg yolks, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can actually help you improve your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that affect your mood–function better. Consume an egg and feel a lot better!
Put together a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and so on are all great for helping to raise your mood. This is because these foods are rich in magnesium, which helps to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical substance that directs the brain how to feel at any given point in time. The more you have of it, the more pleasant you will feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a terrific protein source.
If you would like to battle depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Cold water fish including tuna, trout and wild salmon are high in DHA and omega-3s. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain work a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you fight depression.
Grains can be good for fighting a bad mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all actually great for helping boost your happiness levels. These foods can help you feel full for longer as well, which can help your mood too. Feeling starved can really bring you down! The reason these grains can improve your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest. You digest these grains more quickly than other foods which can help promote your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.
Your mood could truly be helped by green tea. You were simply anticipating to read that, weren’t you? Green tea is packed full of an amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has proved that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This helps sharpen your mental energy while simultaneously relaxing the rest of your body. You likely already knew how easy it is to become healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know it can help raise your mood as well!
As you can see, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you want to feel better! Test out these hints instead!
