Ms Jenn, with her blog post Labong Meatballs, on her blog: Tara, Let's Eat!

I just know that I am going to love this Labong Meatballs even if I haven't tasted them yet. lol. It is kind of similar to the banana blossom burgers that my mom used to make...I haven't tried making them myself yet, but I just know that I will! Pretty soon! Do click on Ms. Jenn's shot above to see what I am talking about!

Another easy peasy food post this week: Loaf Pizza. Actually, it was just an excuse to use the pizza sauce which had been sitting inside the refrigerator for ages! It was not expired yet, of course. lol. But Almost. :D

Ingredients

• Loaf (sliced, but if we had pandesal I would have used it)
• cheese (LOTS! we used Pizza Plus {by Perfect Italiano} - it had mozzarella, cheddar, and parmesan cheese)
• onions, bellpeppers both diced
• pizza sauce

Procedure

• Have the ingredients ready, then assemble:
• bread -> pizza sauce -> onions and bellpepper -> loads of cheese
• Place inside oven toaster. Toast accordingly.
• Or you may opt to add another slice of bread on top of the assembly and grill (or place inside a panini maker). Whichever is available and works best for you.

We actually had this last night. Hubby did most of it. I only helped with getting the stuff from the refrigerator. lol. My son wanted just cheese on top of his bread, while hubby and I went for the one with the pizza sauce, diced onion and bellpeppers (with the cheese thrown in, of course). One light dinner for all of us. Since we had a very heavy lunch. :P

ps. you can add anything to this pizza, actually. Tuna, ground meat, processed meat, pineapples, salted fish, chicken, chocolate (why not?!) ... just about anything but the kitchen sink! lol.

Now that's a meal that I absolutely LOVE! Taste is such a personal thing (I know, I think I've said that often enough. lol) and I just love the combination here: eggs, dried salted fish, some leftover adobo, rice, fruit, and of course, the spicy coconut vinegar {with calamansi/calamondin} dip! Am definite that after such a hearty breakfas, I'd go burrrrrrppp! A personal blog filled with her adventures, you'll surely find something that will interest you...so go ahead and check her out!

Food Friday

This week's Featured in Food Friday player is........

Mr. Jay who blogs over at More Than I Can Chew, with his post:
@ Red Ribbon Bakeshop (Chocolate Fudge Cake)

I love chocolate cakes and this Chocolate Fudge Cake positively had me drooling! Just look at that generous amount of frosting, and also that super cute cake topper! But really, what I like about Jay's blog is that he not only blogs about food, but also about some causes which he believes in. Quite admirable. He has also posted some of the badges on to this homepage, so if you want to know what those are (as well as the yummy food and food-related experiences he's had) then I suggest you drop him a visit. If you're of the same mind, then you'd like his blog, too!

My food post for today is something that just warms my heart...though I revised it (A LOT, lol): Meatballs and Eggplants in Misua Noodles

My mother used to cook misua with sardines when I was young. It sometimes served as our afternoon snack during weekends, together with some neighborhood kids who'd come over and play. Her recipe was simple enough: saute some garlic and onions in vegetable oil, add canned sardines, then add about a cup and a half of water; once it's boiling add in the misua noodles. Snack would be ready within ten minutes!

Mine's a variation of her recipe....
well, I'd like to think so. :i

Ingredients:

• ground pork (made into meatballs, mixed with spanish paprika, salt, pepper, soy sauce, garlic, egg, and onion)
• eggplant (sliced thinly) and chili (both pan-grilled)
• onion, garlic, and tomatoes (all diced)
• water, pepper, salt
• canola oil (around a tablespoon for sauteeing)
• misua noodles

Procedure:

• Saute the diced onion, garlic and tomatoes briefly then set aside.
• Add the meatballs one by one till cooked.
• Add water then let boil.
• You may opt to add salt (or fish sauce) at this point. Your choice.
• Once boiling, add the misua noodles; it'll be done in two minutes, or less.
• The eggplants and chili can be added once the soup is transferred to a bowl.

*adding chili is always optional.

I didn't have this as a snack, though. It was dinner. ^_^
