Fro-yo

Dec 9th 2010Around the Metro & Food and Dining & Food Friday & Me & Photos & Urban Living

We love fro-yo. I think this is far better than ice cream when it comes to health benefits though a scoop (or more!) of ice cream is one that I will never say “no” to.

Not only having fro-yo or frozen yogurt is the “in” thing, people flock to these places to conduct their businesses too. One time I heard someone pitching term life insurance rates to another. I was surprised of course, since most of these meetings usually happen in coffee shops.

I like fresh fruits on my fro-yo. Too bad this one had canned blueberries but it is nonetheless yummy.

European Baked Goodies

Dec 3rd 2010Food and Dining & Food Friday & Me

I love multi-grain breads. Wheat bread too. Below is a wheat bread with some kind of seeds (can’t remember what was written on the label, this was given by the MIL a long time ago) on the crust. Soft inside and a bit crusty on the crusts (duh, what am I saying).

Anyway, this loaf was from a bakeshop that bakes and sells Europe-inspired baked goodies. The owner is a German married to a Filipina.

Cajun Chicken Pasta

Nov 26th 2010Family Matters & Food and Dining & Food Friday & Health Matters & Home & Me & Photos

This is my Filipino version of Cajun Chicken Pasta that I got from The Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond‘s blog. Now, If you don’t know who she is, quick! do click the link to her name and believe me, you WILL spend hours reading her blog.

Chicken Pasta

I know, my pasta pales in comparison with hers, LOL, but hey, the kids got clean plates and even asked for seconds. I used Italian seasoning (combination of different herbs) instead of Cajun seasoning which I’m not sure can be found in the supermarkets. I must look harder next time. We have had this several times since I first tried to cook it.

Now excuse me while I go looking for hot tub covers online 🙂

Ingredients here just in case.

Yakiniku Beef Sandwich

Nov 12th 2010Food and Dining & Food Friday & Home & Me

Have you tried Yakiniku beef? It looks like bacon, only beef. We absolutely super duper love it!

That’s my Yakiniku beef and egg sandwich (I prefer it a bit burnt to remove excess fat) and vegetable salad. Sunquick orange juice to wash down the food. Yum.

Home-cooked Food

I know, this has fats attached to it but I don’t really eat it because it’s “bawal” bummer. The kids have this as their lunch. Here is my Yakiniku beef and mushroom and what I make for them ala-Jo****** beef and mushroom meal 🙂

Here by the way is a controversial issue about Yakiniku beef but not about the quality but something that involved a plagiarist 😉

I was  looking for articles about custom laptops when friends alerted me about the controversial issue.  Hmph.

Mahirap kaya magluto at kumuha ng magandang picture tapos they will say these are theirs.

Home-Made Shawarma

Oct 21st 2010Family Matters & Food and Dining & Food Friday & Home & Me & Photos

Home-made chicken shawarma: wheat pita bread (store bought), sliced green bell pepper and cucumber and chicken strips cooked in oyster sauce.

Yummy!

Some vegetables that can be included: sliced onions, sliced tomatoes, and lettuce bits. Add a little garlic mayo sauce and cheese and its good to go.

A bit of chili sauce for added zing would be great too.

Personally I liked just the green veggies for their crunch, which is also good for those on the lookout for Phentermine 37.5 and wanting to lose weight.
