Menu Planning with Lady’s Choice

COVID cooking has changed the way we stock our pantry and freezer. Even the way we plan our menu for the week has been adjusted. Going out of the condo only once a week, helps us with our intention of keeping exposure to a minimum. Minimal exposure to outside elements keeps everyone safe and healthy. If I plan my menu well, and I am mindful of how I prepare our food, I can keep everyone’s immunity up as well. Thankfully, I was invited to share some of my menu planning tips and tricks for Mommy Mundo with the help of Lady’s Choice.

Kitchen Tips Made Easy

If you want to pick up some new tricks in the kitchen for your cooking arsenal, be sure to catch the video Nino and I put together for Mommy Mundo Followers.  It will be released on the Mommy Mundo IGTV channel tomorrow, June 24th at 9pm.

Sure, fast food meal we grabbed at the drive-through window is a lot more convenient, but meal times with family aren’t called “magic bullets’ for no reason. As filmmaker and journalist Miriam Weinstein wrote, sharing a meal with your family “improves the quality of your daily life, your children’s chances of success in the world, your family’s health, and our values as a society.”⁣ ⁣ Although meal preps require more time and effort, we can do meal planning to help us reduce meal time stress and improve nutrition.⁣ ⁣ Now who’s game for meal planning tips and tricks? @mommanmanila of the @bestbuddies_ph is tipping off what worked for her so make sure to join us on Wednesday, June 24 at 9pm, and let’s watch her flair for cooking delightful meals + helpful tips on how we can make meal preparations more manageable in our homes.⁣ And good news! . Mommy Mundo has partnered with Lady’s Choice to give away P300 worth of @lazadaph GC’s to those mommas who will try any of the recipes or the tips that will be shared. . So watch with us, create, snap a photo, and post it using the hashtags #MakeTimeToCreate #LadysChoicePH⁣ ⁣ Go for it moms! Don’t forget to tag us!⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #MaketimeforWhatMatters #MMLearns #MakeTimeToCreate #mompowerment #mmcommunity #intentionalmotherhood #OnlineEvent #MindfulParenting #mealplanning

It’s packed full of tips and tricks that I have found useful throughout my years in the kitchen preparing meals for my family and friends.

Easy Peasy Recipe

Plus, I will be sharing an awesome recipe that my mother in law shared with me many years ago. This delicious chicken salad is usually requested whenever I attend summer pot lucks. The added bonus is that it feels really healthy with all the veggies that are mixed in.

Download and Print

Because #sharingiscaring I’m also including some free printables for you to use in your own home kitchen.

There is space on this weekly meal plan for each of your meals, and for the shopping list on the side of your menu planner.

And because it’s always good to start with a LIST, (you guys know I LOVE lists) here is a Pantry Essentials List that Sabrina and I used for one of our events.

It just took a little bit of editing to make it appropriate for our current quarantine situation.

Guys-watch the video to see my fool proof Grilled Cheese Sammie secret that is a constant crowd pleaser no matter what time of day!

There are Science based researches that say happy parents are more likely to have happy children.⁣ ⁣ Well that’s most likely because our relationship with our partner greatly influences the way we interact with our kids. Which means working hand in hand and as a team is a must in raising happier and more confident kids.⁣ ⁣ Now what does working as a team entails in parenthood and family life?⁣ ⁣ Join us on another #StayHome series with @PLDTHome on Monday, June 29 at 8:00PM as singer-songwriter @aiadeleon and photographer @erronocampo will talk about “Shared Parenting” and keeping your relationship with your partner healthy.⁣ ⁣ Mark your calendars!

Is there anything more delicious than the smell of Christmas and the new found freedom as we anticipate celebrating the holidays with our families again?

@festivalmall has hosted a series of musical shows since November 5th that include Ace Banzuelo and Silent Sanctuary. Check out Michael Pangilinan on December 10th, too!

Best of all-I love it when the places we know give purpose to their celebrations. Thank you #FestivalMall for partnering with @dsapi1  this holiday season. 

Thank you for sharing all the different ways we can celebrate the holidays with you!

I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Th I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Through this learning exercise with @usapeecphl, I have learned a bit more about these little birds that have bigger breast parts, and thank you Chef @ivoryyat for showing me how easy it is to prepare Greek Lemon Roasted Cornish Hens with Roasted Potatoes.
 
Clean and fresh flavors are perfect for these smaller birds that are rich in protein with zero carbs. Try the recipe in the comments section. I’m sure you’d enjoy it as much as I did!
 
Interested in U.S. Cornish Hens? You can buy them in stores near you. #CornishHen #USCornishHen #PoultryPerfection #CookingWithUSPoultry #USPoultry #USAPEECPHL #ad
@gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @pura @gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @puratosph products that they sent over the other day. Ready to use Bavarian Cream made these Cream Puffs easier than ever. I think we have to figure out how to temper our couverture better…

@mommymundo always has a way of bringing together @mommymundo always has a way of bringing together just what we need, no matter the time of year. Loving these photos of my first boy that were snapped @expomom.

Anyone else thinking about #HolidayPhotos? I am not one of those moms that has it all together before Christmas. It’s usually a mad dash for us at the end of the year, but if it’s anything that the past few years has taught me, it’s that the little things are what makes the Christmas special.

Many of us haven’t been together with the extended family or even our immediate family in so long. That means it’s the perfect time to document.

@nextbymetrophoto will be hosting one last Christmas Marathon family photo shoot before the end of year. Check them out or shoot them a message. They have some cute set-ups.
****GIVEAWAY ALERT*** 10 things I LOVE about @sed ****GIVEAWAY ALERT***

10 things I LOVE about @sedahotels listed here and on FB!

1. Each property has a Signature Dish. If you can’t make it to Bacolod, you can still enjoy Chicken Inasal in any of their properties.

2. Clean Design. So easy to work and play in a space that is light, modern, and clean in design. 

3. Beautiful views. Every chance I got, I would sit outside at @straightupatseda. 

4. Spacious Rooms and Residence Stays. Staying in the Three Bedroom Premier was perfect for our family. 

5. Attentive Service. Everyone was pleasant and accommodating.

6. Centrally Located. If you are thinking of fun things to do in Makati and want a home base, Seda Residences Makati is near a few of the museums, parks, and malls.

7. Work with ease. Internet service is uninterrupted. Meeting rooms are available and easy to book.

8. Relax and Play. From mid-day tubbies with Gelli to, taking advantage of the pool, or the children’s room, the little girl had more than enough things to keep her busy!

9. #FamilyTime. Spending an extended amount of time outside our own space led to laughter, fun conversations, and opportunities to try new things. We were comfortable and rested in the space we were in, which meant more opportunities for us to connect.

10. Homegrown with a Purpose. A Filipino brand that understands the importance of both work and travel, each property is important to the city & province location. Environmentally aware by adopting Mayumi, a Philippine Bald Eagle. 🦅

Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at this time of year? Whole turkeys require serious commitment to cook. #IYKYK But because U.S. Poultry is now available here in the Philippines, that also means preparing turkey is a tad bit easier.
 
Frozen U.S. turkey products are available and ready to cook for people who want to dabble with flavors for this bigger bird but aren't sure how.
 
Thank you to Chef @ivoryyat for putting together a medley of my favorite fall flavors. This combination of apples, sweet potatoes, and maple syrup perfectly compliment  the roasted turkey leg and remind me of flavors and scenes from back in New York. 
 
@usapeecphl l has the highest standards that follow USDA requirements which are certified safe before shipping to the Philippines. Get them in stores near you.
