Squash with Long Beans in Coconut Milk (Ginataang Sitaw and Kalabasa)

Image
I'm putting on one of my favourite recipes: Squash with Long Beans in Coconut Milk. My mom and grandparents never made it when I was a kid but when I came to live in Singapore my co-workers introduced it to me and it has been on my monthly menu very often. It's easy to make and my husband and twins love it too. For those of you who want to try it you can get the recipe here . Another reason why I love this Filipino vegetable recipe is the calorie content. It's so low on calorie (depending on how much you eat of course), and it's high in Vitamin C. Sometimes, I substitute shrimps with pork too. :)I have included here it's nutrition facts, check it out.

Healthy Diet Food: Turkey Breast Wrap

Image
50 g Turkey Breast Meat [7079] 1 Whole Wheat Tortilla salt and black pepper, optional 4 leaves Romaine lettuce ⅛ Avocado 1/4 Onion, sliced 3 Cherry Tomatoes 5 g honey mustard sauce This is what we had for lunch. My husband was pretty enthusiastic making this for me seeing that I am so much into getting back in shape. He went home last night, bringing me some pansit (chinese noodles) and lechon (roast pig), placed it in the freezer for us to have it for lunch, but he served me this instead. :) AND it's only 251 calories! Unfortunately I was pretty hungry and gobbled this up before I can snap a photo of what it looked liked. Next time, I'll have my camera phones ready.
