A light snack for this week's food post: Avocado Spread on Cheesy Toast.

Ingredients

• Bread of your choice (I had baguette, which I sliced)
• Avocado (ripe and mushy)
• Cheese (your choice, or whatever you have)
• salt, pepper, extra virgin olive oil
• calamansi/lemon juice
• coconut sugar/ honey (optional)

Procedure:
Put salt, pepper, and cheese on bread slices, then toast. Go easy on the salt (usually cheese is salty enough).
While the bread is toasting, mash the mushy avocado together with about a teaspoon of calamansi/lemon juice and a sprinkling of coconut sugar (totally optional; you can use honey {raw and organic preferred}, if you want).
Once done, add on toast.
Sprinkle with extra virgin olive oil, pepper and salt.
Devour, paired with your favorite drink.

I finished everything on that plate! Yes, I did. Honestly. :)

While walking home, I decided to check in on one of the wet markets along the way. I was very much surprised to see LIVE tilapia (fish) being sold, I know I just had to buy at least a kilogram. I saw that he had mussels, too ... so I got myself half a kilo. Here is what I did with my loot. :P

Drunken Mussles and Steamed Tilapia

For the Drunken Mussels

• half a kilogram of mussels (cleaned and debearded)
• one onion, chopped
• five garlic cloves, chopped
• ginger (around an inch), chopped
• one tablespoon butter
• around a cup of beer
• chili

- Place the mussels in a container and dump in the other ingredients. Place inside steamer and cook until the shells have opened. Easy-peasy! :)

For the Steamed Tilapia

• fresh tilapia (cleaned and scales removed)
• garlic, ginger, onion, tomato (all sliced)
• salt, pepper, calamansi/lemon juice

- Place fish first then add in the other ingredients, except for the juice. Cook in steamer, for about twenty minutes. Once cooked, add in the juice. Remove and serve immediately.

I know, adding loads of mayonnaise in that steamed tilapia is not healthy. lol. But it tasted real good! Hubby and I had a feast that day. :D

Oh, before I forget: Happy Hearts Day!!!! :)

This week's feature is (again) another food trip while we were in Davao. It was a special occasion, so we went to this restaurant named the Tiny Kitchen. It is a Spanish-inspired restaurant, which also offers cakes and pastries. We had these:

The food was delicious! Service was wonderful, too. None of those holier-than-thou waiters and waitresses. lol. Though I must admit, I find their paella negra a bit lacking - in quantity! :D

All in all, a lovely place to take family and friends. Or business associates. :P

Appreciate much your taking the time to share and link your food posts here at Food Friday! :)

This week's food post has that ingredient that I have been trying my youngest to like: sweet potato. Am calling this: Crunchy Sweet Potato.

Ingredients:

• freshly boiled sweet potato - one, medium sized
• milk - 2 tbsp.
• mango jam - one big dallop
• cereals - 1/4 cup

* amounts listed good for two kids or one adult

Procedure:

• Peel the boiled sweet potato then roughly mash.
• Mix the jam and milk together, then pour over the boiled sweet potato.
• Crush the cereals and put on top to give the snack that crunch.
• Enjoy.

I think that this was half a success (and half a failure) since my youngest only managed to eat three tablespoonfuls. But at least he tried. lol. My other son liked it, though. Both of us finished it in no time. :D

Reminder: Please don't forget to link back (a simple text would be great, or you may use the buttons provided here). Also, please try to visit the other party-goers and leave some commentluv to let them know that you dropped by. Many thanks! :)

This week's post is: Tilapia in Coconut Milk with Chayote. A mouthful, I think, but simple to make. I love chayote (we call it sayote around here) in coconut milk (and that's how we usually cook it back home), and I have also come to like tilapia with coconut milk, so why not cook them together in one dish! :D
