🌍BEEF STEW WITH SMOKY LATIN SEASONING AND My MELON-SPINACH-BANANA SMOOTHIE

DollyLeave a comment

👩‍🍳Use a spoonful or two when cooking protein, vegetables and grains as all-purpose seasoning instead of salty dried spice blends. Or use the whole jar as a recipe starter for 4-8 servings. I added carrot, celery, potato and sweet potato. Before serving add chopped parsley adjust the taste with salt if necessary. Because we are Filipino served with rice, tonight’s dinner is for two. For my smoothie melon, spinach, banana and soy milk. No sugar added.

👩‍🍳Lentil recipes belong to healthy legumes, are easy to digest and have a very high proportion of protein. Red and green lentils are available in stores. Depending on how long they are stored, the green lentils turn brown. They are spicy and nutty in taste. The best-known lentil recipe is “Linsen with Bacon”. But Today it is the smoked spareribs landed in my lentils seasoned with tiny shrimps cooked in coconut milk served with red rice.

🇦🇹LIFESTYLE/ TREES & VIEWS NEAR MY WORK/ MARKET TIME WITH MY DAUGHTER

DollyLeave a comment

👩‍🍳Yes, lifestyle on my way to work sharing to you the view near my job and our way of catching each other with my daughter. Why the mother daughter’s day is important? On this day, mother and daughter benefit from a shared experience far away from stress and outside of their own four walls. The obligations are left out on this day and the cell phone is welcome to be switched off. This creates valuable time in which mother and daughter can let off steam, gossip and laugh to their hearts’ content. In stressful everyday life, we ​​often overlook the other’s worries or we don’t even notice when mother or daughter is happy about a special event. But on the mother-daughter shopping day, there is enough time in addition to extensive shopping to address important topics. This common event welds mother and daughter together.

🌍🌏PANANGHALIAN-LUTONG BAHAY/ EATING AS MEDICINE-HOMECOOKED FOOD/ JUICING

DollyLeave a comment

👩‍🍳Ilocos, located at the northern tip of the Philippines is bordered by the China Sea. That’s the place where my late father and hubby came from. Both are from Ilocos Sur. The reason why I love this dish so much especially the choices of vegetables that are usually added in this dish. If you see me cooking lots of meat, that’s for family. I prefer eating more vegetables than meat especially the green leafy ones. Here is today’s lunch cooked by my hubby and my Juicing with beetroot, carrot, apple and ginger makes this lunch for two so perfect for “Eating as Medicine”! Happy Prepping Guys and thank you so much for joining us today.
