Healthy Inspiration: First Time

These are last week meals and some are repeat for this weekend ;p

adobong broccoli level up! 

first time to try with mushrooms and lots of bell pepper 

those are dried mushroom about P25 per pack and I soaked it in water before I stir-fried with bellpepper and onion :))

Fried Salmon Belly with Bellpepper

I had never tried cooking salmon at home, i always thought they are expensive, but I saw a pack of frozen salmon belly at about P95-120 :))

 Sugarleaf Spanish Sardines - no msg, no artificial flavors, natural sea salt  :))))

I can eat this everyday!

Sugarleaf spanish Sardines Php120

My version of chili bean, I liked the first time I cooked this, then the second one, was so-so 

need practice ;p

For breakfast,

ummm I forgot how to cook pancakes =_= 

this is supposed to be wheat pancakes sprinkled with oats and flax seeds 

my first time to buy Flax Seeds from Healthy Options P180/pack

and also my very first maruya, (plantain in wheat flour) ;p

Have you tried something new lately?

At the same time, I missed homecooked meals 

the last time I went home in Laguna we had fried GG, pinakbet and for sunday, I woke up with fried rice and daing  for breakfast

Hope y'all having a great weekend!

Sugarleaf at Greenhills

We finally visited Sugarleaf and treated ourselves with healthy food. :) This store/cafe meant to be a one -stop shop for healthy stuffs/ a mini mart of locally sourced organic products, more info about them here

We shared a glass of  refreshing strawberry kefir smoothie topped with chia seeds  (Php150)

Kefir is also a cultured milk products like yogurt but with more health benefits.

And then we tried their goody wraps: Vegetarian wrap(with apple and cucumber) (P148) and 

Crab Mango Wrap (w/c we both like best) (P188). 

It was very filling that I was not able to finish my plate.

Crabstick and mango wrap

There were stands full of health goodies and some interesting stuff I found like the malunggay polvoron and mango tams.

I also saw some trail mix, nuts, vegetable quiche to name a few in the glass chiller.

I want a lot of stuffs to buy but I am only set to buy this raw cacao nibs (at P200)  for now. 

I've been on the hunt of raw chocolates for the past weeks, I thought I might as well try this.
