I’m glad to be cooking in the age of the Internet. I love how easy it is to find something new to try, regardless of my noob-ness. The world’s recipe book is at your fingertips! Imagine several decades ago, you’d only learn about new dishes if you get cookbooks! Sharing with you my Easy Recipe Bank board where I pin dishes I’d like to try, and incorporate on my meal plans š (I’m Filipino so you’d see several Filipino dishes in there, too!)

Hereās the āafterā photo of the roasted veg, I drizzled olive oil and lightly seasoned it with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Husband commented, āI still canāt get over these roasted vegetables.ā I guess we feel the same way! āŗļø
.
Second photo is our actual meal for today: brown rice, chicken kebabs and roasted veg. Love how simple and easy this dish was, cooked in just 20mins in the oven. .
(Kebabs were pre marinated from Woolies.)
On Saturdays I find myself doing easy bake recipes so Iād have more time to do other things. Like today Iām just using the oven to cook kebabs and a tray of these veggies to go with it. (Also I am still marvelling over roasted veggies, coming from a country where veggies are usually in soups, stews or stir-fried dishes!) Hereās me done with lunch prep as early as now before we head to the recycling centre to drop off styro (Iām sorry mother earth), and pick up groceries on the way back. Canāt wait to see these #broccoli #carrots and #zucchini roasted beautifully.
Guess this #egg has been neglected? š
In my life, I never imagined Iāll do a homemade version of my second favorite Filipino foodā #tocino āmostly because I really liked Pampangas Best; but now I have no choice but to make some. Iām so happy to make this batch, no preservatives, no food colouring. Cured for three days, frozen for another couple of days. This is the start of me trying to make the best version (according to my tastebuds, of course) of tocino!
Good morning! We donāt have breakfast on most days but on Sundays we pancake. But we woke up to a -2Ā° temp so itās making me crave all things ācomfortingā. Hereās me wishing to skip to the weekend so we can whip up #pancakes again! š„ .
I sincerely didnāt know making pancakes were so easy, even my husband thinks so! (This was his try last Sunday.) I think weāre ready to make fancier ones, what do you like added on your pancakes? .
PS Growing up with maple-flavoured syrup, finally trying real ones is awesome! š Thanks Canada šØš¦
So this is what todayās lunch looked like: Baked Hoisin Drumstick, Brown Rice and Roasted Cauliflower and Carrots
.
I should remind myself to cut carrots into bigger chunks so they donāt die and burn (though theyāre still yummy), and omg I have just been introduced to a different world of cauliflower. I will definitely make these again but maybe slightly lower temperature.
.
Cauliflower was tossed in lemon juice, olive oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Baked at 200Ā° fan forced for 30mins (maybe Iāll do 180Ā° fan forced next time).
Prepping todayās lunchāBaked Hoisin Drumsticks. My hormones got me making spamsilog (spam-fried egg-garlic rice) yesterday and I feel so guilty so here I am making a decent dish today. Iām making roasted cauliflowers too! What are you cooking today?
Today I taught my husband to cook. For breakfast we made pancakes, and for lunch/dinner (we eat twice a day) we made mashed potatoes and baked lamb ribs. Easy ones for now, or else he might not want another session! What easy meals should I teach him next?
