Chicken Diablo (Baked) »
This is so hot, hot hot and I love it! ü Thanks to my husband for teaching me to appreciate chili peppers. I used to turn up my nose to hot and spicy food but now, I can match my husband’s tolerance for hot food, and I think I can handle it better than him [...]
Shortbread Cookie Bars »
Light, crumbly, buttery, melt-in-your mouth delicious cookies bars..so quick and easy to make! It only has 3 ingredients – butter, sugar and flour! You would want to use only butter to make these to get the best-tasting result but I have tried and been using margarine stick/s to make this and I’m quite happy and [...]
Chicken in Mushroom Sauce »
Chicken+ Cream of Mushroom Soup + Shiitake mushroom equals one fantastic dinner! It’s not a quick dinner recipe but it so super-easy!

Pork Milanese (Italian Breaded Pork) »
Another breaded pork recipe, this time it’s Italian..Ole!! :D It’s basically the same with the tonkatsu and schnitzel (German breaded pork ), the addition of oregano and nutmeg makes it Italian (I guess..) A squeeze of lemon is just what it needs but you can serve it with any sauce/gravy that you like by [...]

Grilled Eggplant Moussaka »
This is my first try at making moussaka and it was a hit with my family! Moussaka is a Greek version of lasagna but instead of pasta sheets, thin slices of fried eggplant (aubergine) is used and the top is covered with creamy, cheesy, white sauce ( Bechamel sauce). This is not an easy dish [...]
Pan de Sal (Salted Breakfast Buns) »
Crusty on the outside, soft on the inside that’s how I remember the pandesal from my childhood. It’s what we usually have when my mom didn’t have time to cook breakfast and our favorite after-school snack. We buy it fresh and hot from a neighborhood bakery; I like to eat some on the way home [...]
Oatmeal Craisins Chocolate Chip Cookies »
This recipe is close to my heart as it’s the very first oatmeal cookie recipe that I’ve tried. I under-baked it the first time I made but still my husband and I gobbled it up (the kids were not born yet at that time). It’s originally called “Best-Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies”; I tweaked it a [...]
Whole Wheat Coconut Oatmeal Banana Muffins »
It has a long name but this recipe just like most muffin recipes is really easy to make. It’s easy, quick and yummy which is the standard for me lately so I can have more time to do some other fun and equally important things. This is a healthy muffin recipe too, in case you [...]
Tonkatsu (Japanese Breaded Pork) »
Make it fun. It doesn’t have to be complicated. It will be what it will be – I’m loving this quote that I picked up from Gwyneth Patrow’s cook book. It’s exactly how I feel about cooking, I just could not articulate it…it applies to my life as well. :) Here’s an easy and [...]
