We have a malunggay tree in our backyard and the household help must think I sound like a broken record because I always tell her to pluck some of the moringa leaves for mixing into some of our everyday dishes: chicken tinola, for instance, or even for making into pesto.

Metamucil ( a product of Procter & Gamble) chose Maricel Laxa-Pangilinan as ... Continue Reading...

@greenwichpizza giveaway: win a full pan of #CreamyCarbonara! (10 winners)
Carbonara is the new comfort food! Just like the sweet-style Pinoy spaghetti, we have our own way of appreciating carbonara in these islands: saucy, milky, and flavorful. No egg yolk required! :) Yesterday was a special day. I told the nanny not to cook for lunch because something special would be arriving in our doorstep. And out came the friendly delivery guy bringing a whole pan of Creamy Carbonara from Greenwich Pizza! The kids were thrilled because they love this pasta. Greenwich makes an excellent version that is generously mixed with ham, bacon, cheese ... Continue Reading...
