As mentioned sa aking previous post, we love using Harvester's Healthy Brown Rice. It's generally more nutritious than white rice, but we also enjoy its chewy texture and when cooked right, brown rice tastes delicious too which makes it adaptable to all sorts of cuisines. Though, nasabi ko rin na we normally use it for fried rice recipes. This time, I decided to top our favorite vegetable fried brown rice with another of our favorite Korean dish - Korean BBQ Chicken! This Korean BBQ Chicken is fast and easy to make, plus it's really bright, flavorful, and has some sweetness too. The sauce which I also used as a marinade, nabili ko sya na naka-package na sa Korean grocery store. It has soy sauce, bbq sauce, honey, sesame oil, sesame seeds, etc.. For the fried rice naman, I used garlic, corn, carrots, and UFC Fun Chow Rice Mix which added so much flavor sa kanin. Share nyo na rin mga ka-grocery moms, what recipe you like to make or pair with brown rice.

Agree naman tayong lahat that a Filipino meal is not complete without rice. It's definitely the most popular pantry staple dito sa atin. With rice kasi, not only it's relatively affordable and easy to make, it's also very accessible. Kung kagaya namin kayo na bumibili ng bigas sa mga grocery stores and supermarkets, I'm sure familiar na kayo sa brand na Harvester's. Harvester's is one of the well-established brands ng Sunnywood Superfoods Corporation. It's all about good quality rice comprising a range of exciting varieties. From white rice, unpolished rice, long grain, short grain. Meron din silang healthy rice selection: Brown Rice, Multigrain, Black Rice, and Whole Grain Red Rice. Ang tatlo sa madalas naming binibili are their Healthy Brown Rice (P151, 2KG) which has a perfect nutty, dense texture at syempre it contains a rich assortment of dietary fiber, B-vitamins, minerals, essential oils, antioxidants and selenium. We like using it for fried rice recipes. We also love their Thai Jasmine Rice (P205, 2KG) which has natural fragrance, delicate rice flavor and delightfully fluffed texture. Lastly, their Special Dinorado (P164, 2KG) which is one of their best sellers. It’s also naturally fragrant and fluffy in taste and texture. It's basically an all-around rice to be paired with a lot of our Filipino dishes. For more details, here are their social media links you can follow:

Because, let's face it sodas are loaded with sugar content. This is why lately, I've been drinking and loving sparkling water. Sparkling Water is also a carbonated beverage pero ang kaibahan nya sa soft drink, it is naturally carbonated. Its bubbles come from a spring or well with naturally occurring carbonation. It also contains calcium, sodium and magnesium that are beneficial for health. Just like Perrier Sparkling Mineral Water na bukod sa refreshing, it's also a fun drink without the added calories and no sugar din. Definitely a healthy and natural alternative to carbonated soft drink. Plus, bukod sa kanilang plain sparkling water, they also offer fruit-flavored ones. I've actually tried one of their latest flavors na available na dito sa atin. It's the Perrier Pink Grapefruit Flavored Sparkling Water. It has a really subtle essence of the sweet-and-tart flavor of pink grapefruit. It's nice, refreshing and bubbly. Perfect sa mga mahihilig sa mga flavored refreshments but with 0% of the guilt. Perrier Sparkling Mineral Water is available in S&R, Landmark, and The Marketplace. Also at Lazada and Shopee. For more details, visit Perrier PH on Facebook or at @perrierph on Instagram.

Plus, these bars are available in delectable flavors: Choco, Fruits, and Tiramisu. Mabibili nyo sila for P143 with 5 bars inside or you can also get their Fitbar Jute Bag Bundle with 4 Multipacks for only P699. These are available in leading supermarkets nationwide.

Next to chocolates, I also look forward to eating some Valentine’s Day-themed sweets especially donuts. Hence, I got myself not just one but three boxes of Valentine’s Dunkin’ Hearts for just P199! Inside each box are four mini heart-shaped donuts. You can actually avail 1 box for P70. These Valentine's Day treats are available at any Dunkin’ store nationwide.
Ever since na-discover ko yung napakaraming health benefits ng chia seeds; from being highly nutritious, loaded with antioxidants, may reduce risk of heart disease, and many others, parati na akong naghahanap ng iba't ibang recipes na pwede kong ma-incorporate ang mga little nutrition powerhouses na ito. Usually, I use them as toppings sa mga yogurt bowls or make 3-4-ingredient pudding recipes. But recently, I've been mixing chia seeds in water, lemon, and honey. Not only it's refreshing but it's also a really healthy drink. Plus, napakadali lang gawin. This is a natural energy drink and it's a protein-rich drink, so maganda rin sya if you're trying to lose weight. You can drink this at any time of the day, although chia seeds are best in the morning as they are easy to consume during morning meals and give maximum benefits with morning usage just like any detox drink. Ang tip ko lang, be sure to stir the seeds well when you add them to the water or what I do is, I like to soak chia seeds for at least 30 minutes to plump up nicely and attain that gel-like consistency bago ko i-add yung lemon and honey. I also prefer to drink it with ice. The brand of chia seeds I'm using is Nutrifam which readily available sa maraming grocery stores dito sa atin, plus it's more affordable than other brands and organic na rin sya. Share nyo na rin mga ka-grocery moms some of your healthy drink recipes.
Recently, I've been on the hunt for high fiber biscuits. When you search online, ang unang lalabas are digestive biscuits na madalas ko ng nakikita sa mga grocery stores. Most of the brands na nakita ko are Marks & Spencer, Tesco, Jeanne & Jamie's, Brittania, and McVitie’s. These brands are mostly from UK. It's because these digestive biscuits or simply digestives are extremely popular in the UK. They are a common snack that they pair with tea. Ang pinakakilala at pinakamalaking brand ng digestives which is also the one that invented the biscuits in the first place is, McVitie’s. So, I got myself a box of McVitie's Digestive Dark Chocolate Wheatmeal Biscuits. These are golden-baked, crunchy wheat biscuits, topped with a layer of smooth, dark chocolate. The biscuit itself is crumbly, not as crunchy but has that melt-in-your-mouth texture. It also has a lightly sweet and buttery taste. Ang pinaka na-surprise ako is yung lasa nung dark chocolate. Honestly, I'm not usually a massive fan of dark chocolate but went for this one as I felt it's a bit on the healthier side. It's not bitter, not too sweet, it's just smooth and decadent. Plus, kung kagaya ko kayo na mahilig mag-dunk ng biscuits sa hot coffee or chocolate drink, these biscuits are definitely perfect dunkers! I recommend you try this kung naghahanap kayo ng bagong maita-try na klase ng biscuit, something you can pair with your hot drink, plus with the wholesome goodness of wheat. I got mine at Shopwise for P120. Share nyo na rin mga ka-grocery moms if you've tried these digestive biscuits.
