When I cook pasta, I don’t have exact recipes that I follow. Whatever we have in the fridge is what I use, as long as these would give delight the fickle taste buds of my children.
Here is my simple version of chicken alfredo pasta Cajun Chicken Pasta
Ingredients:
tomatoes
red and green bell pepper
sliced olives (optional, I added these because we have extra from another dish that I cooked)
bite-sized chicken (from chicken breasts)
all-purpose cream and cheese for the sauce
Italian herb seasoning for flavors instead of Cajun
spaghetti noodles cooked according to instructions
I topped mine with fresh parsley bits.

Yummy cheesy pizza, perfect for a light (light?) afternoon snack. This is the kind of pizza my children prefer, no frills but flavorful.

Several mom blogger friends and I were invited to the SM Hypermarket Super Chefs cooking demo by Caren.
Below was one of the three recipes she demonstrated: Smoked Bangus Paté
Ingredients:
- medium-sized smoked bangus fillet, flaked and fried in olive oil
- 1 box of cream cheese
- half-cup all-purpose cream
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- salt and pepper to taste
Procedure:
In a blender, put one piece of medium-sized smoked bangus fillet (minus the head, tail and bones), cream cheese, all-purpose cream, lemon juice and salt and pepper. Pulse until smooth and creamy.
Serve in individual containers with toasted bread or your favorite chips.
To those who have been reading phentermine reviews and want to diet, try substituting light all-purpose cream and light cream cheese. Lessen salt too since the smoked bangus is a bit salty already. Plus use baked chips instead of fried ones.
Nomnomnom!

A trio of dips from Mang Inasal: vinegar, chicken oil and soy sauce.
Mang Inasal stores are just about anywhere. In the area where we live, there is one nearby but another one is being constructed.
Unlimited rice. For the uninitiated, rice is staple food in the Philippines and is present in almost every meal.(Yes, figure conscious people should have their weight loss pills ready 😀 )
We like eating here because the food being served are “homely” and simple.

I have featured the dish (below) here as it was done in a cooking class I was invited to go to.
Last Wednesday night, we had it for dinner with a few minor changes according to what I have at home.
I plan to cook more using olive oil even if it is a bit of a strain in the pocket but if the benefits are good for the family’s health, why not?
I usually use soybean oil for cooking and I still do especially in frying (fish) which requires more oil.
