Human: Are there any foods or recipes that will help me sleep easier?

Assistant: It’s actually fairly common to try “relaxing” foods or recipes before bedtime, which are aimed at helping you relax and be less stressed.  It’s thought that some of these foods, especially oatmeal, bananas, and warm milk, are able to slow down the digestive process and can make you feel more full, which also leads to feeling less anxious.  There is even a superstitious belief that eating a light meal right before going to sleep may cause a restless sleep.  Here’s a chart showing different foods and their effects, if that’s helpful: 

So a light, relaxing meal right before going to sleep might mean you don’t go to sleep as quickly and wake up in the middle of the night and can’t go back to sleep.  But a more relaxing meal or recipe that keeps you busy for a while, say one that you have to prepare and enjoy with friends or family, is probably more likely to help you sleep better than a quick snack.
