I made some yummy things today! This morning, I felt like cooking something so I steamed some broccoli and added potatoes, onions, and some good seasoning.

Ingredients added:
  • garlic powder, lite salt, pepper, mixed herbs seasoning
  • little bit of chicken stock
All on a couple leaves of lettuce! Added a fried egg, about a tablespoon of pork emputido, and some sriracha sauce. The veggies were delightful :)





Then, for an afternoon snack, I made peanut butter and banana pancakes WITHOUT the fatty flour! Thanks to The 10 Cent Diet for an unbelievably easy yet tasty recipe. Her recipe actually says to use 2 bananas, but I only had one haha. Tasted great still :) These were so fun to make. Sadly, the ones I made were a bit unhealthy just because I didn't have organic peanut butter.

For dinner, I didn't get to shoot a picture. I don't know what to call it either. I kind of cooked something for the family off the top of my head. While marinating the chicken, mom came home and asked, "What are you cooking?" I said I didn't know. ;) But the result was amazing. And it's probably bad that I only cook things to "taste" instead of exact measurements. It's just not my thing, sorry! Anyway here were the ingredients for the marinade of the chicken:
  • Soy sauce
  • Garlic powder
  • Garlic salt
  • Pepper
  • Some sugar and brown sugar (not too much)
Once chicken is done (process may very for you since I used chicken thighs and drumsticks), add potatoes, onion, garlic and achuete. Although, next time I won't add as much achuete. I added about almost half a teaspoon, which resulted in it tasting a little too similar to other dishes that use it. Even before the achuete, the chicken tasted amazing! And if you're wondering what oil I use, it's all about Extra Virgin! Except for the pancakes, I used Veggie Oil like it said, but I honestly don't even know the difference :( Bye!
