Fresh Green Salad!

Everyone loved this that is why am so lucky to have a photo of it because i never had the chance to have a bite even on one slice of cucumber.  I think everyone should enjoy eating this kind of food to avoid disability appeal. If we are all healthy then we are all wealthy.  What will you do with your riches when one is unhealthy.  Right?

I was so busy entertaining the guests that when i ate, there was no more serving of that.

Weeks ago, we celebrated the 15th founding anniversary of the college so there were too much meat dishes.  We had a banquet Sunday evening and we have to eat left overs the next day.  So that Tuesday, we can’t afford to eat any single meat dish again so we had this -

- camote tops salad -

- fresh tomatoes with boiled eggs and raisins.

It was truly a delight!

Sinabawan na Monggo {Monggo Soup}

Are you fun of drinking soya milk?  Do you make your own soya milk? If so, then don’t throw your pulp away.  If you are just buying your soya milk from healthy food  shops then inquire where you can avail of some soy pulp.  Our hospital is known for its healthy food products and soya milk is one of them.   Last week i bought some pulp for some cooking at home.  I made some into vege balls for a misua soup and i also made it into a patty.  The kids here at home love it!

I am trying my very best to cook something healthy because i don’t want to add more unwanted weight to myself.  I want to practice eating just the right food at the same time do Kettlebell exercise to lose my extra pounds.    Soon i will start walking and i hope i will stick to my goal.

That patty is really yummy.

Ingredients:

soy pulp
flour
salt
eggs
black pepper

optional:

food flavor powder(maybe chicken coating powder)
shredded carrots

We had this treat Thursday and Friday of the holy week.   Some are asking how did we cook this, so let me try to enumerate here the ingredients and the how to:

INGREDIENTS:

::sticky rice (according to how many people will eat)
::half kilo sugar (brown)
:: grated coconut

::banana (diced)
::sweet potato (diced)
::taro (diced – small size)
::jackfruit (strips)
::sago (colored or non-colored will do)
::ube (optional) (diced)

Steps in cooking:

1.   Put  2 cups of warm water in the grated coconut and press.  Set aside the milk.  (do it 2 times)  The second washing, put in 4 cups.  Set aside the second washing.

2.  Put the grains of sticky rice (or you can use the powdered sticky rice) with the local ingredient called “landang”  into a big kettle.  Put enough water to cook it.  Boil.

3.  After some 20 minutes, put in the coconut milk (the first wash) with the sugar, taro, sweet potato, and the colorless sago.  Stir constantly.  Let it boil again.

4.  When the sticky rice is fully cooked, add in the banana,  jackfruit and the colored sago.  Put in the second wash of coconut milk.  Let it boil with constant stirring.  Add sugar if needed.

5.  Remove the kettle from fire when all the later ingredients are cooked.

6.  Serve in a regular size  serving bowl.
