Super Quick Chicken Enchilada Casserole

This is another one of those times I had to scratch my head for what to fix for dinner. We had some leftover fried chicken from the night before but I didn’t like to eat that leftover tonight so I thought of taking the breading out of the chicken and use the chicken meat forContinue reading “Super Quick Chicken Enchilada Casserole”

Adobong Pula or Adobong Tuyo

(Red Adobo, Dry Adobo or Adobo Seca) This dish is not much different from the regular adobo in taste except it is dry and it has no soy sauce in it but it has coloring from achuete or annato seeds extract. After I made it and when I ate it, I liked this kind ofContinue reading “Adobong Pula or Adobong Tuyo”

Moo Goo Gai Pan

I learned that the name of this dish has English translation and that is: Moo goo means mushrooms Gai means chicken and Pan means slices There you go! Therefore, you can’t omit or substitute those main ingredients and call the dish moo goo gai pan. You can, however use any kind of vegetables you likeContinue reading “Moo Goo Gai Pan”

Easy Potato Soup

My husband hasn’t been feeling good and has no appetite lately. But he needed some nourishment though. I asked him if he wanted soup for supper so maybe he can eat and fill his stomach with something. He said he’d try. I had a few ideas of what kind of soup to cook but IContinue reading “Easy Potato Soup”

Stewed Pork With Curry

(With Or Without the Okra) This dish and recipe are the same as Stewed Chicken With Okra I previously posted. But I used pork in this stew instead of chicken to see if it would be as good as the stewed chicken with okra. As a matter of fact, I like the pork better thanContinue reading “Stewed Pork With Curry”

Stewed Chicken With Okra

(Or Without Okra) Just like most days, I couldn’t decide what to cook for dinner. I thawed a couple of chicken leg quarters, that ought to be enough for the two of us but I can’t think of what to do with them that we are not already tired of eating. I was feeling ambitiousContinue reading “Stewed Chicken With Okra”

Shrimp Lo Mein

Using Linguine Instead of Fresh Chinese Noodles The recipe for this Shrimp lo mein is about the same as the Chicken lo mein I wrote a while back. But when I cooked it with shrimp instead of chicken, I decided to write it separately from the chicken because it may be confusing to those notContinue reading “Shrimp Lo Mein”

Chicken’n Mushrooms

(In Cream of Mushroom Soup) I’m running out of ideas for dinner and I’m sort of tired today. I don’t want to eat out so I have to come up with something easy to cook for tonight. I thawed half of a chicken breast and wondered what to do with it that is easy butContinue reading “Chicken’n Mushrooms”

What-A-Chick’n Sandwich

Not a copycat but close to and better than… I happen to find boneless chicken breast halves on special sale at the grocery store. I could not resist to get a large family pack of them at a very low price. But when I got back home to separate them and re-package them to freeze,Continue reading “What-A-Chick’n Sandwich”

Korean Pork BBQ

Pork Bulgogi I’ve been curious how Korean bulgogi tasted like because I heard it a lot in Korean dramas which, I am very fond of watching. One day we went to try a new Korean restaurant that just opened in our area just to see and taste what a bulgogi was. This restaurant is aContinue reading “Korean Pork BBQ”
