Tofu and Kangkong in Oyster Sauce

This viand is one of our home staple. Bakit hindi eh ang mura ng ulam na ito and can feed a whole family, not to mention nutritious!

Ingredients

  • tofu
  • kangkong
  • onion
  • garlic
  • oyster sauce
  • water
  • oil

Procedure

  1. Cut your tofu according to your preferred serving size, fry and set aside.
  2. Sauté onion and garlic. Once fragrant, add your kangkong leaves and stems. Make sure you rinsed your kangkong well.
  3. Cover to cook the kangkong, about 5 minutes.
  4. When your kangkong stem is already tender, add oyster sauce. Gaano karami, trust your tastebuds. Add water if you want it saucy.
  5. Season with pepper and salt if needed.
  6. Add your fried tofu and mix.
  7. Transfer to a serving dish and top with fried garlic bits.

Ulam namin ito usually after ng palengke day. Ang mura kasi sa palengke ng kangkong, imagine isang malaking bungkos for 50-60 pesos. Then tofu is usually 3 for 10 pesos ata or 20 pesos. Basta this viand is always less than 100 pesos and can feed a family of 6 in our case.

Have you tried this dish? Bet ba ng family mo?

ATHENA – Milk for Women

I am a milk drinker. In fact, I take milk for snacks sometimes. Kaya weirdong-weirdo ako sa sarili ko why I experience joint pains, specially sa knees. I had my knees checked and my doctor told me it could be the footwear I always use. Then I thought, maybe the milk I am drinking lacks something.

Thankfully, I found ATHENA, the milk especially formulated to meet active women’s special nutritional needs, just like us moms.

Athena is

– High in Calcium, essential for optimum bone health. It is also a source of Vitamins D and K, Magnesium and Phosphorus – nutrients to help maintain strong bones.

– Low in Fat so you can enjoy this beverage without the risk of high caloric intake.

– Source of Anti-oxidants such as Vitamins A & E and Zinc to help maintain healthy skin and promote optimum immune function.

The icing on the top is that ATHENA is available in two delicious flavors: Milk and Chocolate. The MILK variant is available in two sizes: 180 grams for PhP130 and 400 grams for PhP273. On the other hand, the CHOCOLATE variant is available in 180 grams for PhP130. It is available online at www.athena.com.ph and in-store at Mercury Drugstore, Watsons, and Southstar.

Crave Healthy – Expectant Moms’ Go-to Snack

I remember during my two pregnancies, I always wake up in the middle of the night because of hunger. I have a can of crackers under our bed and that’s what I eat for snacks. I kind of feel guilty because I know I am not getting anything from the crackers except empty calories. But it is the middle of the night and crackers are convenient.

I’ve said this many times in the recent years and I will say it again, Ang sarap magbuntis at these times. Maternity wear are now fashionable, baby gears are abundant and easily sourced, more people promote breastfeeding and the list goes on. Pero ok na kami sa two girls namin for now.

Ito ang sana meron na noon pa para di ako nag tiyaga sa crackers when hunger strikes at night. A healthy way to satisfy hunger and food cravings of pregnant women in now possible with CRAVE HEALTHY.

crave healthy Crave Healthy is the first snack product in the Philippines that is specifically designed for the pregnant woman by doctors and nutritionists.

With Crave Healthy, moms-to-be are not getting empty calories because it contains essential nutrients such as Folic Acid, Iron, and Calcium, which are critical for both the mom and her growing baby. It also has reduced salt and just the right amount of calories that give the pregnant woman that extra energy she needs daily.

It is not only NUTRICIOUS, it is also DELICIOUS. Currently available in Sweet Corn flavor, it taste just like any regular snack in a bag. It does not have any aftertaste of nutrient fortifications.

While both my pregnancies went well, I wish more convenient food support the nutritional needs of pregnant women and their developing fetus back then. So kayong mga prego ngayon, swerte niyo ha! Pwedeng mag chichirya minus the guilty feeling.

A pack of Crave is worth Php 25.00 at 30 grams each. It is available online at www.cravehealthysnacks.com, select Med Express branches, and select Robinsons Supermarket outlets.
