What porridge do you drink in hot weather?

It's very hot in summer and I can't sleep, especially now the pace of life is accelerating, which affects my sleep. Poor sleep quality can lead to health problems such as getting old and getting fat. Some people will take some sleeping pills to help them sleep. In fact, this practice is not good. Although the drug is effective, it also has many side effects. So, what should I eat if I have a bad sleep? I recommend a very common vegetable-pumpkin, which can be said to be a good nourishing product with good quality and low price. It contains a lot of vitamins, among which vitamin B 1 and vitamin E have the functions of stabilizing mood, calming nerves and preventing aging. Eating more is good for health. If you have poor sleep conditions, you can also eat more pumpkins, which can improve insomnia and moisten your lungs, and it is not easy to cough if you eat more.

There are many ways to make pumpkins. I made pumpkin, mung bean and lily porridge today. People in China like to drink porridge, which is thought to be nutritious and easy to digest. And different ingredients have different nutritional functions. Using lily to nourish the heart and soothe the nerves, mung bean to clear away heat is very delicious, nourishing yin and tranquilizing the mind, which has a good effect on regulating anorexia and insomnia in summer. Learn how to do it with me!

Ingredients: 250g pumpkin, 45g mung bean, 40g rice, 25g red yeast, 30g fresh lily, and appropriate amount of rock sugar.

Practice: 1. Wash mung beans, Redmi and rice first, and then soak them in clear water for 30 minutes;

2. Peel off the pumpkin skin, dig out the pumpkin seeds and spoon inside, and then cut the pumpkin meat into small squares of about 1 cm;

3. Put the soaked mung beans, Redmi and rice into the pot, and pour an appropriate amount of water, the amount of which is about 5~6 times of the material. After the fire boils, turn to low heat for 30 minutes;

4. Cook until the rice swells and the mung beans and Redmi pop open, so you can put the pumpkin;

5. Put the pumpkin into the pot and stir;

6, then add rock sugar, then cover and continue to cook 15 minutes, because the pumpkin is cut very small and will be cooked soon;
