Eating a small snack a few hours before bedtime may help. There are no specific foods that help you sleep. But, it's a good idea to avoid certain foods late in the day. Everyone has trouble sleeping from time to time. See a Doctor if your insomnia doesn't improve.
1. Don't go to bed hungry. A light snack before bedtime can keep hunger pangs from waking you up. For example, have a bowl of oatmeal, cereal with low-fat milk or yogurt with granola. If you have diabetes, discuss nighttime snacks with your doctor.
2. Avoid large, high-fat meals late in the day. Also avoid garlic-flavored and highly spiced foods. These foods can make you uncomfortable or cause heartburn.
3. Avoid alcohol and caffeine. Both can interfere with sleep. Keep in mind, it can take up to eight hours for the stimulating effects of caffeine wear off.
4. Don't drink too much liquid. Drinking lots of fluids before bed can cause you to wake up repeatedly to use the bathroom.
I love making sandwiches with string cheese. I actually made one today with some pepper in it, which would make it a Pepper String Cheese Sandwich. It was quite tasty~
Do you grill it like a grill cheese or just eat it cold on the sandwich? Sounds good.
