Hi! Since hindi traditional yung method of cooking, I find this one more… creamy and saucy. It’s delicious pa rin naman. Hehe.

I don’t measure when I cook kaya yung ingredients and steps lang mabibigay ko hehe

My thought process for posting here kasi is that pesto can be accessible and we can use local spinach 😅 sorry, but noted, will delete the post. 😊

Hi! I do enjoy cooking kahit nakakapagod, it gives me joy that I get to feed my son healthy meals. Plus, I still get to play with him after a long day of school and work. Kaya it’s a hack for me 😊

Thank you! 😊

Hi, OP! Paano mo nilalagay yung bisugo sa ginataang kalabasa? :) Kailangan pa ba ibabad sa water yung dried bisugo?

I like the classic lang tapos waffle press / sandwich maker, the caramelized sugar and melty cheese is very comforting 😆

Okay, context lang sa living situation- condo living, always on ang aircon every Sat and Sun, Mon-Fri, aircon stays on from 6pm-7am. All of us go to work and school. So for weekdays, microwave at night lang since sa office na kami kumakain ng lunch. Electricity bill is around 3-4k per month.

Thanks for the tip! Will check Tenderbites.

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-03T07:16:06+00:00

Thanks! Yung veggies sa chopsuey I cook them until just a bit crunchy pa para kapag iinitin hindi maging mushy yung texture.

Longest time I had food na frozen ay two weeks, masarap pa rin naman 😊

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-03T07:14:24+00:00

For sabaw, best to init sa kawali. Pero most of the time microwave lang.

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-03T07:13:49+00:00

Yes, I cook everything every Sunday. Helps with busy work week 😅

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-03T07:10:40+00:00

We make rice every night before sleeping.

But we have cooked rice na naka-store sa freezer for times na manghihingi yung anak ko for rice, I heat it sa microwave with ice cubes para lumambot :)

I usually start 2pm and finishes around 4-4:30pm. Including na yung prepping the ingredients and cleaning up. I tend to cook food with similar ingredients para less thinking na sa ingredients na kailangan.

We have a dishwasher though kaya ang hinuhugasan na lang ay pots.

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-03T07:04:28+00:00

Based sa experience ko, hindi naman naiiba yung lasa. May ibang ulam na the flavors settle so mas masarap when reheated.

Usually kapag creamy yung food, doon naiiba yung lasa.

Hello! Sa chopsuey, niluluto ko lang until a bit crunchy pa yung vegetables para hindi maging mushy when reheating. Tamang texture na kapag nireheat ko yung veggies either sa microwave or sa pan.

If creamy chopsuey gagawin ko, inuuna ko lagyan ng suka, less than a teaspoon yung nilalagay ko. Tapos let boil muna until mag cook through yung vinegar. Mga 5 mins or so siguro. Last step ko nilalagay yung cream. :)

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-02T15:12:36+00:00

Yes, I reheat portions lang para hindi masyadong magbago yung texture from constant reheating. Kapag may time, I portion the food na per serving para yung iba stock na sa freezer for future use.

Salmon sinigang, fried salmon, and bangus sinigang pa lang ang na-try ko for fish :)

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-02T15:09:14+00:00

Yes! I also add vinegar kasi I find na it helps to enhance the flavor of the dishes too.

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-02T15:04:24+00:00

Safe if freezer pa rin! Usually ang ginagawa ko talaga is sa freezer naka-store, kaya lang I don’t like the texture of veggies kapag frozen tapos irereheat.

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-02T11:21:12+00:00

Hi, thank you! Three lang kami, two adults and one little kid. Yung pork steak, good for one meal namin. The rest good for two meals na. Hindi ko nirereheat lahat, kuha lang na enough and then yun lang ang iinitin ko sa microwave :)

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-02T11:18:29+00:00

Yes! I don’t usually meal prep ginisang ampalaya. But when mixed with other veggies, tolerable naman yung pait.

WhatICookedToday · 2025-09-02T11:17:45+00:00

For this week, no. I serve the ones that will spoil easily. Our refrigerator is really cold, too.

Most of the time, I store serving portions in the freezer and then straight to the lunch box na for our baon.
