RECIPE: VEGAN BANANA OAT PANCAKE

Here’s an easy-to-make pancake. But before I share the details, let me say that this will not taste like the Pinoy pancake we grew up with. Typically, for many of us, the pancakes taste sweet. Putting any sweetener of your choice here is optional. Also, I won’t be putting the measurements because we just played around with it. Haha. INGREDIENTS: * Banana (mashed) * Oats (rolled, processed through a food processor if possible. if not, it will still work) * […]

RECIPE: FRIED CAULI RICE WITH SALTED EGG

My husband gave me a bouquet of veggies for Valentine’s Day. Why? Because I don’t like cut flowers (so he never gave me real cut flowers) and we are vegetarians!

It’s some sort of a (fun) competition when adults do this, because they have to move fast to get the food they’re eyeing for (most especially if that food is limited). When my son was an infant, I thought of making one and invited his cousin. We woke up […]

MAKING BANANA + MILK DESSERT WITH A TODDLER

Summer is officially here! It’s been so hot lately that I’m starting to crave for iced desserts. In the Philippines, HALO-HALO is a favorite for many Filipinos. It’s a mix of different textures and tastes put together with milk, ice, and if you’re lucky, ice cream and our beloved leche flan. In our household though, I grew up with this simple banana and milk dessert. And since I was craving for it after lunch earlier, I decided to introduce it […]
