When I was growing up, I would always hear my mom and grandmother ask everyone in the house what dishes they would want to eat for the whole week. This was the scenario that played out in our home every week. Sometimes I would see how stressed out my grandmother would get every time they […]

Dreyfus Cuisine: Fabada con Filippo Berio
Back in the day when I didn’t know my husband yet, the only bean dish that I knew how to eat was plain ol’ canned Pork & Beans. Although I have tasted other dishes that use beans as the main ingredient, I was never really a fan. That was until my husband introduced me to […]
Knorr #LutongNanay – Knorr Sinigang na Liempo sa Sampaloc with Gabi
Rainy days are here again. And there’s no better way to warm up than to serve a hearty meal for your family because nothing beats the goodness of home cooked meals. Everytime I ask #TheDreys what they would want for lunch especially on a weekend or a rainy day, Sinigang is always top of mind […]
Nestle Create with Cream – My own Creamy Pork Adobo creation
Just a few weeks ago, I posted about the Nestle Create with Cream event wherein Chef Rob Pengson created an old dish with a twist – Creamy Chicken Adobo. Adding Nestle All Purpose Cream to the dish tempers the sourness of the vinegar and gives the sauce a nice thick consistency with a velvety texture […]
Dreyfus Cuisine (with Purefoods Sexy Chix): Healthy Chicken Burrito
I admittedly am obsessed with a lot of things and that includes creating home cooked meals for my family. I don’t know… I just love cooking for them even if I am really tired or busy. I guess it’s because I love seeing their happy faces whenever they learn that I’m whipping up a storm […]

One of my first posted recipe was my Balsamic Chicken Adobo. I don’t usually use Balsamic vinegar but when I crave for some complexity in my adobo, whether chicken or pork, I go for something like this. This time, I want to recreate this recipe of mine using pork, but still with quail eggs and […]
Mushroom and Cauli Frittata recipe
One of my daily dilemmas is to think of what kind of breakfast to prepare for my family each and every day. It has to be filling, nutritious, delicious and enticing to eat. You see, people in #TheDreys household are heavy egg eaters. So, yesterday morning, upon checking my fridge, I found some cauliflower, butter, […]
Ginisang Monggo with Chicharon
Whenever I hear or cook Ginisang Monggo, I always remember Lent – a time of the year when meat is not served every Friday. My grandmother who was a superb cook and who taught me how to cook and to make magic in the kitchen, always made sure that Ginisang Monggo was part of her […]
Dreyfus Cuisine: Nacho Loco
As I was checking my pantry, I saw a box of tortilla chips, can of corn kernel, cayenne and paprika powder. When I opened my freezer there was a kilo of ground beef. When I checked my fridge, there were beans and parsley. Aha! Looks like my hubby and kids will be going Mexican for […]
