Pork Humba

Don’t get me wrong, Pork Humba or Braised Pork Belly or Pork Stew is VERY tasty. We used to have this cooked twice or thrice a month when we weren’t into healthy food years ago. I don’t use the pork belly then, thank you very much, because of its fat but I use pork loin instead. There are many varieties to this dish but I prefer cooking this with lots of garlic, mushroom, and hard boiled eggs

It is a slow cooking recipe and you can view how it is cooked here.

Below is a photo of what constitute a pork humba using pork belly or in Filipino term, liempo:

I am not so sure how much fat content there is for every slice of this meat. But from these come bacon slices which are cured before they make their way to the supermarket.

So what is SCARY about this? The fat content of course! 😀

Here is my other entry for the scary theme.

Bubba Gump Lunch with Forrest Gump

We had lunch at Bubba Gump TriNoma today and met Forrest Gump being “played” by Steve Weber.

I had fun, I think the other blogger guests had fun too.

The food was great and so is the ambience. The crew were friendly and so is Forrest.

Fat-Burning Vegetable Soup

These are some of the ingredients needed to make vegetable soup which would help burn body fat.

Special thanks to a very special lady who shared this recipe to those who want to burn body fat while having this soup: Toni of Wifely Steps.

I tried this vegetable soup and I loved it. If I could only have this for a week, like those being taken for a 7-day diet, I would. Semestral break is coming up so I may have the chance to do this again once I don’t have to go to work.

Honey Bees

Honey bees are lazy. NOT. Click here for more information.

This photo was taken from a honey bee farm that we visited last month. We bought virgin honey, honey propolis and bee pollen for our consumption. We also got Citronella Sting-less Insect Repellent.

Here is my other entry.
