These past few weeks I have been eating chicken adobo and feeling tired from it I cooked soup last night using the remaining pieces of chicken and the remaining pack of misua noodles. I also drop few macaroni on my soup and use magic sarap to add more flavor on it.

My ingredients:

• chicken strips, misua, zucchini, garlic, onion, pepper, magic sarap, macaroni, water

Well not really the usual ham you are thinking but it is a process one, processed ham is enormous here and can be bought in cheap price. As I am already tired cooking and eating chicken I opted again to processed food, I know it is not healthy but it is the only way I know so I am not going to be tired eating my usual meal.  Next week I am back again to my chicken dishes.

Well this is what I prepared for my husband ham and egg sandwich with cheese, all I did is fried the ham top it with cheese and with the fried egg.

The other day I felt hungry and I want to eat something nice and different from what I have eaten in past few days. I have been eating chicken eh, well so I have thought of cooking sapporo soup or sotanghon soup. This two packed is included from the package I received from Philippines.

My Ingredients:

Sapporo, zucchini,  chicken strips, garlic, black pepper, onion, water and salt to taste

Procedure:

• Saute the garlic and onion until brown
• Add the chicken, then add the  zucchini, cook it for a little bit
• Add water, drop the sapporo noodles
• Add salt and pepper to taste
• Let it cook and boil until the noodles is well cooked
• Serves hot

I am quite busy last night because I decided to cook chicken macaroni soup with a thought that the boiled chicken will spoiled if I wait few more days before cooking a  soup. I boiled few pieces of chicken on water with garlic, onion and salt just too bad I don’t have chicken cubes left.

My Ingredients:

Macaroni, carrots, zucchini, cabbage, chicken, salt, oil, ginisa mix, onion, garlic, pepper, cream powder and water

My Procedure:

• I first boiled the chicken with onions and garlic, then strip the chicken into pieces. I keep the broth for later.
• I sauteed garlic and onions and when it is little brown I add the cut carrots and zucchini I sauteed them for few minutes
• When it is mildly cook I add the water, chicken broth, chicken strips and the cream powder (in exchange of  evaporated milk)
• Then when it starting to boil I added the macaroni which I already boiled separately
• I add salt, ginisa mix and pepper to taste
• I let it boil and then add the cabbage and let if cook for few minutes

Last Wednesday when we shopped our daily supplies I didn’t forgot to buy liquid yoghurt as well or probiotic milk or let just simply called it Korean Yakult. So today this is what I got a strawberry juice, I have learned it when I bought fruit juice in the market.

I blend two Yakult, 4 strawberries as I have no liquid sugar I just used white sugar and add a little water. After blending it for few minutes I add three cubes of ice and is ready to drink. Yum, not just delicious but healthy too!

Most instant noodles in Korea are spicy that I seldom buy and eat.  The other night my husband and I crave for something savory and we had cup of noodles and instant spaghetti.  I ruined his spaghetti though I have add the sauce while the noodles are still in hot water, I should drain it first but I mistakenly thought it is noodle soup.

One night my husband asked me to buy something to eat in GS25 aside from buying an ice cream for both of us.  While looking at store fridge I have found another flavor of ice cream knowing my husband will pay for the other ice cream I bought another one for me. When he saw three ice cream he get mad thinking I will ask him to pay the other one, lol.

Anyway you may not familiar with this but this is common in our province the poor version of  ice cream sandwich. It is simple as you can see just ice cream between the buns.  Most dirty ice cream vendor has this version which is very popular among elementary students and even high school students too, it is also popular when there’s  a town or school affair like fiesta, provincial meet and etc.,

When my husband saw what I am doing, he laugh and called me barbaric and asked if it is poor mans thing in my country. Well I said yes and it is popular in the street, this taste better than eating ice cream in the cheap cone.

As I am not feeling well I am sleep the whole day and when evening came I am quite busy cooking, I have cooked five different meals. While frying some eggs and luncheon meat for my husband I am cooking the soup, then when it’s done I ate then I cooked again, this time  chicken tidbits and after it I have cooked rice. When I’ve done all my task it was so tiring.

Not really what you are looking at, just a version of my cheese sandwich.  Early this morning today before we sleep I felt hungry so I took the mayonnaise bottle in the fridge, I am planning to eat some buns with mayonnaise but my husband told me to add cheese on it. I don’t really like this processed cheese but to make it more flavorful I followed his suggestions and its a good thing I did, its yummy.

My husband asked me afterwards if the bread and mayonnaise is poor man thing in the Philippines, I told him its normal you can even buy bread with mayonnaise spread in most student canteen eh.,

I have cooked misua soup today with sardines, I still got some canned foods from the Philippines. As patola (gourd) is not present here I used zucchini as my vegetables. It’s been a long time since I have eaten this kind of soup.

Misua (also spelled mee sua or miswa) is a very thin variety of salted Chinese noodles made from wheat flour. It is originated from Fujian, China. They differ from mifen (rice vermicelli) and cellophane noodles in that the latter two are made from rice and mung beans, respectively, and typically a lot thinner than those two varieties.

My Ingredients:

Zucchini cut into pieces, Misua, Sardines, garlic, onions, oil and water

Procedure:

• Saute the garlic and onions in a little amount of oil
• When it is brown add the sardines, cooked it a little longer and drop the zucchini
• Mixed it and let it cook for a while before adding water
• Add the misua and let it boil until  the soup is ready
