I’ve been wanting to try this recipe on YouTube for so long, but it’s kinda tricky to put together the ingredients because we sort of have a fixed budget for groceries. I prefer to buy what we need for a week or two at the same time, so we can keep tabs of our expenses. Some keto-friendly products are not really available at the usual supermarkets or if you do find them there, like Swerve or Almond flour, they’re a little too expensive than when you buy them from independent distributors and suppliers. So I’ve had most of these ingredients […]
How to Make Easy Choco-Banana Milkshakes
No need for Vanilla Ice Cream! I’ve blogged before about my two younger kids’ YouTube Channel, Home Cooking with the Tornadoes. They love playing around in the kitchen and I thought that they can learn a lot about food and how to prepare them by actually turning them into cute little chefs. Of course, being the mom that I am, I made them do their thing on video, haha! Anyway, Judah’s request for this week’s episode is Milk Shakes. Most milkshake recipes I’ve seen online require Vanilla Ice Cream, but I remembered that my mom had a milkshake recipe that […]
Home Cooking with the Tornadoes
I promised the kids that I will teach them to cook more this school year. We started our home school year in January and home cooking would be a great life skill to teach them. Besides, they love helping me out in the kitchen. They don’t mind chopping veggies and would beg me sometimes to let them put the ingredients into the pot, so why not take advantage of their interest in the kitchen, right? So I started teaching them basic Filipino dishes, like Sinigang (Tamarind soup), Chicken Adobo, Tinolang Manok (Boiled Chicken in ginger soup) and some of their […]
Easy Recipes: Creamy 3-Cheese Chicken with veggies
From time to time, we would invite couples over to our house for dinner. They’re usually couples from our Bible Study group or our church, and sometimes, friends whom we’ve known for a while. Other times, we invite people we just met. We have a tiny house and we can’t fit too many humans in here, but we have learned to open our doors to people whatever the size of our home is. Parking is a bit of problem here in our area, we always have to plan and arrange parking for our guests days ahead, but by God’s grace, […]
My First Keto Bread
I’ve been wanting to bake keto bread for myself. I’ve tried the ones being sold at the ketogenic market groups in Facebook, but I prefer baking because I love to bake. Not that Almond flour is cheap. It’s not! But you order it along with other keto-friendly items like Coconut Aminos, unsweetened cocoa and Himalayan salt, so it won’t be as expensive. I’ve had the ingredients here for almost two weeks already, but finally found a window to bake this morning. I have yet to master it but I’m okay with what I’ve come up with, so far. This is […]
