🍋 No bakey-bakey Lemon Tart  🍋


Our Z loves the tangy zesty lemon. Lemon juice, lemon cakes, lemon-pepper chicken wings, lemon Himalayas candies...what else is there? If there's a lemon donut, wow, i'm pretty sure it'll be a great combo for her! Come to think of it, she enjoys "Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events" too.. is it because its lemony?

So for my Z who loves lemons, from a tentative idea, i finally decided to at least try making a lemon tart in our lifetime. And if all goes well, we can add it to the annals of our family history LOL. (I say this because I have lots of misadventures in the kitchen. It takes a leap of faith to try out some new dish, really.) 

The magic of technology, right up there in my Youtube search hits was missevabakes lemon tart video, golden cheerful yellow, no-bake, her recipe beckoned me.

Yep, yep! We whispered a prayer, rolled our sleeves, and marched to the kitchen!

And here's our first version:

Verdict: ETMZ, they all loved it! 😘

Conclusion: 
Best served cold in tiny slices, every now and then. 😍
Some tweaks to hit the spot, but it definitely is up for the go-to recipes for any lazy want-to-whip-something weekend.

oh my chickpeas! (hummus try this too!)

"Not a chick 🐤, it's not a pea! It's chickpeas!" My hubby's long wait is over, finally, chickpeas hummus is served! Really delish. Garbanzos  or otherwise known as chickpeas , is a power food from the legume family. Using only the trusty food processor, t his dip is one easy and nutritious dip to make.  A nd because it's got that peanut-y butter taste, my little chickpeas (👦👧👧) enjoy it too. Buddy-up with some veggie sticks, and their favorite potato chips, and they won't be able to resist it.  If not 100% healthy plating, at least, partly healthy. We win some.✊         Ingredients 6 tbsp lemon juice 2 garlic shredded 1/2 tsp salt 2.3 cup peanut butter, or tahini (more legit) 1 can of washed/drained garbanzos 1 tsp salt ice-cold water 1 tsp cumin powder 1/2 tsp paprika powder or chilli flakes Steps 1 Marinate In a food processor or blender, blend together lemon juice, shredded garlic and salt. Let sit for 10 mins to allow the flavors to marry. 2 Blend

Steamed eggy pie

If I've not mentioned it already, my little family is in love with chicken  🐔  eggs. 😍 We do not have the  e99y as our beloved padre de pamilya for no reason at all.  Omelette, sunny side up, egg sandwich, deviled eggs, scotch eggs, adobo eggs, salted eggs, egg soup, oh the list does go on!  Another of our favorite take is steamed Eggy Pie . Much-loved by my brood, this one is perfect for merienda in school and at work or right in the comfort of home.  Dessert? Easily so! Simple and delicious, this is also a no-bake recipe. Instead of oven, only a steamer  is needed. And THAT makes it an absolute keeper in my recipe list!  😎 Steamed Eggy Pie Serving size: 8-inch pan 1+1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup cold butter 2 tbsp sugar 3 large eggs 1 cup evaporated milk 3/4 cup condensed milk Vanilla essence Prepare the crust: 1. Mash and mix the dry ingredients below.     1 +  1/2 cup all-purpose flour     1/2 cup cold butter chopped to small cubes     2 tbsp sug

Stove-top e99 pie

No oven, no steamer, no problem! All you need is hunger and LOVE to find a way 😜.  ...well, also a not-so-shallow non-stick frying pan . With staple ingredients, you're set for this comfort food! My teen-to-be Chef  M  tried this stove-top method, 🙆"So smart", she'd quip. Yup, it was easy as 123! Tools- Non-stick pan (not deep) Clean kitchen towel (to wrap the pot lid) Mixing bowl Whisk Measuring cup & spoons Strainer Ingredients- All purpose flour Sugar Salt 1/2 cup cold butter (a tad softened, like 5 mins out in room temp. ~113g) 3 eggs Milk Vanilla Tip(s): * Making a smaller portion, you need to reduce to a smaller ratio of every ingredient. ALSO, reduce the cooking time! (e.g. half portion in 45mins-ish) 💡 Inspired by: Kusina Chef
