How to make this Query without using UNION?

I am not very good at making query’s. So could someone explain and help me with this query?

I need to inner join 2 tables ‘Slaap’ And ‘Eten’. i need all ‘eten’ where ID = 5 and i need all ‘Slaap’ where ID = 5. I could only achieve this with a UNION but that is what i dont want because this query is for making the latest activity so i can use ORDER BY but i can’t because of the UNION.

This is my current Query:

SELECT e.tijd, e.product_1, e.product_2, e.product_3, s.van, s.tot, s.slaapoptie 
FROM users u 
    LEFT OUTER JOIN eten e on e.user_id = u.id AND e.id = 5 
    LEFT OUTER JOIN slaap s on s.user_id = u.id WHERE u.id = 5 
UNION 
SELECT e.tijd, e.product_1, e.product_2, e.product_3, s.van, s.tot, s.slaapoptie 
FROM users u 
    LEFT OUTER JOIN eten e on e.user_id = u.id 
    LEFT OUTER JOIN slaap s on s.user_id = u.id AND s.id = 5 
    WHERE u.id = 5

With as result

query

I want the same result but without using UNION so someone explain this for me and how can i achieve this?
