Guilt-Free Hearty and Healthy Snacks

January 18, 2024 0 Comments

Eating healthy and keeping our bodies fit isn't just a New Year's resolution; it's a lifestyle choice that can have a profound impact on our overall well-being. Since last year, I've been more mindful of what I eat and have stopped consuming soft drinks and junk food, as well as processed foods. 


As much as possible, I make a conscious effort to consume a healthy diet. Most of my diet consists of oats, various nuts (I'm a huge fan of almonds and nilagang mani), fish, chicken, tofu, veggies, and fruits. I've been able to maintain this healthy eating habit for several months now, although there are moments when I feel tempted to indulge in fast food snacks and eat just a few bites. Hopefully, I can keep it up and totally refrain from eating junk foods.


So, I was happy when I saw these guilt-free snacks as I was doing our grocery shopping! I checked the nutrition facts and they looked fine and passed my inspection. Lol.


3 Guilt-Free Hearty and Healthy Snacks


Here are the Guilt-Free Hearty and Healthy Snacks that I've recently discovered and loved:


1.Choco+  Bitter Sweet Zen-Sation. It is made of Dark Chocolate + Pure Cocoa. I've also tried other variants; the Choco+ Yum at Heart which is made of Dark Milk Chocolate + Whole Hazelnuts and Choco-Crazy Nutrition which is made of Dark Milk Chocolate + Roasted California Almonds + Flax Seeds & Chia SeedsBoth of these are a little sweet for my taste, so I go for the Choco+ Bitter Sweet Zen-Sation.

Nag-hoard ako guys, coz super layo ng Abreeza sa Mintal, mga 1 hour plus din ang biyahe. Hahaha! Yup, I first saw this chocolate at Robinsons Abreeza Mall grocery, it's priced at 28 pesos lang for 33g. I saw this at SM's grocery too but its price is a little higher than the ones in Abreeza Mall.


2. Emco Musli Oat Biscuits come in chocolate, hazelnut, and blueberry flavors. All of them are good, but my favorites are the hazelnut and blueberry. I purchased this at the NCCC Mall's Victoria Plaza grocery, although I can't recall the exact price.

3. MAYA ThinkHeart Whole Wheat Pancake Mix. Not only is this pancake mix delicious, but it's also quite simple to make. It's also nutrient and vitamin-rich and healthy. My daughter liked it, which surprised me.

I bought this at NCCC Mall's Victoria Plaza grocery, but you can also buy this at Gasiano Mall, SM and Robinsons Abreeza groceries. I think this is priced between 80 and 90 pesos or more, sorry I forgot the exact price. ;)


So far, these are my recently discovered Guilt-Free Hearty and Healthy Snacks that you can buy at the grocery stores. I'll update or make another blog post if ever I find other yummy, healthy, but also affordable snacks. :)

My Version of the Korean Egg Toast

April 09, 2021 0 Comments
Preparing and cooking our own food at home should be a priority. This is safer and you are confident that what you give to your family is nutritious just like Gardenia Classic White bread - delicious, fresh, and packed with vitamins and nutrients.

So, today I did my own version of Korean Egg Toast also known as Gilgeori Toast and here are the ingredients that I used:
  • Gardenia Classic White Breads
  • 2 eggs
  • Cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 Carrot, grated or shredded
  • Spring onions, thinly sliced
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Cheese, grated
  • Ketchup

Procedure: 

1. Combine the egg, cabbage, carrots, and spring onions in a mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt and ground black pepper and mix them well.

2. Preheat the pan on medium-low heat then toast the slices of bread until it's golden brown. (You can also spread the bread with butter before toasting, we ran out of butter so I just toasted the bread without it).

3. Add some cooking oil to the pan then put the egg mixture and cook until it's fully cooked.
Put the toasted bread on a plate and add the egg, and cheese then spread the mayonnaise and ketchup on top of it.

4. Then place the other slice of the bread on top of it and you're done. Serve and enjoy!

There's a lot of recipes that you can make with the Gardenia Classic White bread. Aside from our favorite Korean Egg Toast, we also love to make homemade pizza with ham and cheese

How about you, what's your favorite sandwich spread or recipe to go along with the Gardenia Classic White bread? Please comment below and share how you prepare it as well.

The Sexy Chef Cooking Demo at Abreeza Mall

March 25, 2014 0 Comments
I am not a good cook and I still have a lot to learn but I am trying my best to cook for my family. As much as possible, I want them to eat healthy foods, especially my little one. So, I was so excited when I got an opportunity to attend a healthy cooking demo with The Sexy Chef Barni Alejandro-Rennebeck and her sister Rachel Alejandro at the Abreeza Mall last Saturday, March 22, 2014.


I have learned a lot from them and also learned a few of their recipes that they've shared during their cooking demo. Four of the recipes that they've shared are also in their book The Sexy Chef Cookbook which are the following:

Malunggay Shrimp Fried Rice



Stir-fry Korean-Style Noodles


Tofu "EGG" SALAD Tea Sandwiches



Romain Salad with Cranberries, Pine nuts and Pesto Vinaigrette

One day, I will try these healthy recipes. I just hope my little one would eat it, hehehe... I also bought cucumbers a while ago so I can try the cucumber juice. You just blend the cucumber and drink it's juice everyday and it will help flatten your tummy. So, for everyone who wants to get rid of their belly fats (like me), try to drink cucumber juice everyday. It can also clear out the toxins in our body. ;)

Thank you sexy chefs for all the tips you have shared with us... :)
