Growing up I know I have three
favorite dishes – Pinoy Sweet Style Spaghetti which I truly love because my mom
add tons of hotdogs, Sinigang na Baboy (Pork Sour Soup) and Fried Chicken.
My folks were also heavy meat eaters
when they were younger. Mostly, they would prepare dishes like Menudo (diced
pork with carrots and potatoes in a rich tomato sauce), Nilagang Baka (slow
cooked Beef with lettuce, onions and potatoes) and Adobong Baboy (Pork Adobo
cooked in a complimenting blend of soy sauce and vinegar with tons of garlic).
Seafood such as mussels, squid, crabs, lapu-lapu, shrimp and prawns were prepared
during special occasions.
As years went on and I took over the
household and our daily menu, my food preference changed. I still love Pinoy
Sweet Style Spaghetti, Sinigang na Baboy and Fried Chicken but seafood has
greatly been added to our menu. Not only does it help with a better digestion
as my parents get older, but it is healthier and easier to cook.
Shrimp is one of my favorite
ingredients whenever I prepare my menu. Readers of this food blog know how much
I adore shrimps and prawns. It is also one of the easiest seafood dishes to
prepare. If you’re like me who juggles numerous hats, your priority is to feed
your family with easy to cook dishes without suffering the taste and health
benefits out of every meal.
Allow me to share with you my
collection of shrimp recipes here at Eat To Your Heart’s Content. After all,
May 10 is the National Shrimp Day.
Let me help you celebrate with this RECIPE
ROUND UP : SHRIMP ALL-YOU-CAN.

Have you experienced an intense
craving of a certain dish, dine at the nearest restaurant near your office or
home and end up disappointed? Disappointed that you felt short-changed for
paying a hefty price but the taste was not even near the vicinity of saying the
dish was good.
Heck, you can’t even say it was okay!
I’ve had several occasions when I dine
out, mostly to eat pasta dishes and end up disappointed. The promise of an
authentic Italian cuisine, were all just a promise. Of all the many restaurants
I have been to, I only have about five of my favorite restaurants offering good
and I mean delicious pasta dishes but some that makes you go over your daily
budget.
Now if I have a pasta craving and
needs to stay on a budget, I whip up an easy to create pasta dish. Whether I
will devour this with my family or bring home to work to share with my
colleagues, it is comforting to know that the dish I created won’t fail me.
Allow me to share with you this Easy Recipe : Creamy Shrimp Linguine Pasta,
using the freshest shrimp you can find, this delicious pasta recipe is a
sure winner. No disappointments. No promises. Just simply delicious!
A COLLECTION OF
CHEESY GOODNESS
Every day is a celebration of food. I am not just saying that because I LOVE food (isn’t it obvious?! Lol) Every day is practically a food day on a certain state, country or worldwide. There are also national food months. These food celebrations occur when an individual, a company or an organization chooses a certain food or ingredient and creates a campaign, which is then picked-up by others and goes viral. To make a food day or month official, certain laws on a particular country must be processed. Once everything is in order, a national food month or day is celebrated.
For the month of April, aside from the
fact that we celebrate the National Food Month, it is also the National Pecan
Month (and day on the 14th) and National Soft Pretzel Month (plus
National Pretzel Day on the 26th). As for food days, National
Sourdough Bread day celebrated last April 1, National Cheeseball Day on the 17th
and National Blueberry Pie Day on the 28th.
Apart from those food days mentioned,
two of my favorite food celebrations in April are the National Grilled Cheese
Month and Grilled Cheese Day on the 12th. Yes cheese lovers, this is
for us.
What is it with cheese that makes
every dish so comforting? Don’t you just drool when you see melted cheese once
you slice a perfectly grilled sandwich?
Allow me to heighten your cheese
craving and make you drool even more as I share with you some downright
delicious creations by fellow food bloggers and a bonus recipe (so don’t stop
scrolling and reading okay?). Here’s a collection of cheesy goodness, RECIPE ROUND UP : GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH
and let’s celebrate the National Grilled Cheese Month and devour them to your
heart’s content. (Let’s do the happy tummy dance!)
For the past few weeks, the
temperature in this side of the globe has been extremely rising. My weather app
has registered a whopping 96°F to 98°F. I have been gulping ice water – I keep
my water bottle frozen over night which I bring to work and I am not even half
way through the day, the frozen water is just ... water and not so cold
anymore. That is how hot each day has been.
To beat the heat, I enjoy a variety of
ways from a simple chocolate fudge sundae, smoothie, freshly made gelato,
frozen yogurt, ice cream cake and the iconic Pinoy layered dessert Halo-Halo.
If you’re searching for summer
indulgences to beat the heat, look no further. Stay glued, it’s Chill Time here at Eat To Your Heart’s
