d. One of my signature recipes that my husband absolutely loves is my alfredo sauce. I have played with this alfredo sauce quite a bit using both bacon and chicken as my meat. Both proteins make excellent pasta dishes. This is a bacon pasta alfredo sauce.
One of my staples when hosting is a charcuterie platter. A charcuterie platter is the perfect appetizer because I don't really have to cook anything except prepare everything in a nice platter.
Leftover banana chocolate muffins are a staple in our household. Why? Because we always have leftover bananas.
Adobo is one of those dishes that always brings me back to my childhood. It is something that is always cooked at home. One variation of adobo I like to make is the spicy chicken adobo.
When I'm hosting Filipino friends, one of my favorite recipes to prepare is my chicken adobo - party style, called Instant Pot Party Chicken Adobo. It's different from the usual adobo because it's more stylized. The sauce from the regular chicken adobo is blended and served as a side, like gravy.
Decanting is the process of placing items in bottles. I've been doing it for the longest time in my pantry: for the flour, sugar, rice, pasta, nuts, etc. I don't need waterproof labels for my pantry because I rarely wash the outside and simply refill them all the time.
The best home decor is the DIY decor. Here, I make a DIY vase flower arrangement. The trick here is to buy artificial / faux flowers that look real, but still within your budget.
As a working mom in Madrid, I really need recipes that are easy to make. And this Instant Pot Pork Adobo is one of those recipes. You just put all the ingredients in the Instant Pot, wait for the desired time, and it's finished.
If you want to change up your adobo leftovers, adobo flakes makes it new, but still with that adobo flavor that we all know and love.
