Recently, I looked at the circle of friends, parent groups, and community groups, and almost all of them said that children and the elderly had fever, cough, etc., and they didn't get better for several days. As the temperature gradually decreases, most areas will also usher in snowfall, which is more conducive to the growth of viruses and bacteria. As ordinary people, we can only do all the protective measures, insist on exercising, and eat not only according to the season, but also eat more than 4 ingredients to enhance our physique.
Green ingredients or leaves look good, and they are rich in folic acid, vitamins and trace elements, which can provide the body with the nutrients it needs. Especially when you have a loss of appetite or eat too much greasy food, you can feel comfortable eating a few bites of green leafy vegetables.
In winter, seasonal leafy vegetables include spinach, coriander, Shanghai greens, Cantonese cabbage, chrysanthemum, etc., which can be eaten in turn.
【Spinach mixed with enoki mushrooms】

Boil water in a pot, add a little salt and cooking oil after the water boils to keep the dish color unchanged. Blanch the spinach and remove it after about 30 seconds. Rinse with cold water, squeeze out the water and place in a bowl.
Cut off the roots of enoki mushrooms and soak them in water to wash well. Tear the enoki mushrooms, boil water in a pot, add the enoki mushrooms and cook. Cook until enoki mushrooms are soft, remove them, rinse them with cold water, squeeze out the water and put them in the spinach.
Add minced garlic, chili pepper and sesame seeds, heat oil in a pan and pour over the minced garlic. Add salt, light soy sauce and monosodium glutamate, stir well and you're done.
Most animals need to hibernate and fish are less active during the winter months. This is when their meat is at its fattest and tastes the best. They are rich in protein and minerals and are easily absorbed by the body. Fish is also low in fat and has less than beef and lamb.

Take a plate and spread the bottom with green onion and ginger. Rinse the sea bass with water, drain and remove the beer flavor. Change the sea bass into a knife and place it on a plate.
Boil water in a pot, put the water on a plate and steam it after the water boils. Steam over high heat for 8 minutes and simmer for 1 minute.

Pour in 1 tablespoon of light soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of steamed fish soy sauce, shake the fish and serve.
Advances in technology have also allowed us to eat a lot of food all year round. Mushrooms are one of them, in fact, only winter mushrooms are the most nutritious and have the best taste. Mushrooms contain a lot of protein, dietary fiber, calcium, phosphorus, lysine, etc., and are not high in calories, so they can be fried, saladed, stewed, etc.

Dried fruits can be eaten not only as a snack but also for stir-frying. It is rich in plant protein and trace elements, which not only tastes good, but also can replenish energy and enhance physical fitness. In winter, we can eat some peanuts, walnuts, chestnuts, pumpkin seeds, etc. appropriately.
