Baked Chicken Drumsticks And Bibingka

I found a healthy way to cook chicken. I always wanted to eat fried chicken but to fry them on stove top makes a lot of mess that is why I rarely do that. Besides, eating fried chicken often is unhealthy. So last night I searched on the internet an alternative to frying chickens, baking them instead! Photo below is my baked chicken drumsticks that turned out to be yummy. My husband and daughter both loved it weeww! I followed a recipe from cook.com. 

..... here's some of freshly baked bibingka that I had for dinner to go with my chicken drumstick. They may not as yummy looking but I can assure you they sure taste really good and bouncy! 

My Specialty, Possum Pie

I am munching on a tasty and yummy frozen possum pie right now after that scrumptious lunch I had (tinolang manok with tanglad and kamunggay lang naman for my birthday). I made a whole tray of possum pie in time for Father's day and for my birthday but it's just me and my baby eating it. I know my husband sees it in the refrigerator but for some reason he's not touching the pie. Hmmmmmmmmp! It's okay though, I will be the one to slowly finish the whole thing. Will freeze some as it taste better when eaten straight from the freezer.

Even my little girl loves the pie. It will take days before we can finish it, I know. I am not worried as I've said it taste good and we both love eating my specialty, possum pie. You wanna try some? Bring a plate over here and will give u some for free hehe!

Inexpensive Dessert

Who says a dessert should be expensive? You can make a real quick fix dessert at home and not costing you much. I did it just weeks ago with my own invention of two different salads. First photo is the young coconut salad with kaong and coco gel or nata along with raisins, cheese and of course the dressing table cream and condensed milk! Voila I had my sweet and delicious buko salad!

...... the second photo below is another kind of salad only with a slight difference in ingredients. Instead of using young coconut, I replaced it with sliced apple and ripe mango, of course the coco gel or nata de coco and kaong are still present but this time I didn't add raisins. What difference does it make than the first one? Nothing except that it gave me and my girl a satisfaction to our craving.

My First Try... Not Bad!

I take pride in my cooking especially if it's my first time to cook or prepare certain dishes or desserts like this one. It's a leche flan dessert made with eggyolks, condensed milk and melted sugar.

I've never done this before but then I literally dreamed of it, so one morning I woke up... I decided that I will just go ahead and make some to please myself. It was rather a success experiment. I will just adjust the milk and the sugar next time though because it's a little bit too sweet for me.

Kudos to PanlasangPinoy.com for I could have not done it without it's step by step video that he provided on his site.

Possum Pie Addiction

I first tasted this possum pie at the Filipino Christmas party last year when Janine brought it during the party. It tastes so good that I couldn't get enough of it. I asked her recipe for the pie and made my own. I have tried making it twice already and planning to make some more for I really love the soft, sweet and coolness taste of the pie when it lands to my mouth.

Two weeks ago I made a whole lot of big baking pan of possum pie and it took me almost a week to eat half of the pan. When my husband got home from San Antonio he ate the remaining half as he was afraid it might get so dry. I told him, I am eating it slowly, savoring every bit of it because I really love possum pie.
