Like I said, I would try to make Dutch Pancake with savory toppings.
Honestly, this is really filling. I had a third of this with a piece vegetarian sausage, and added more arugula on my plate.
Delicious.

Pesto Pasta Recipe
I was at the grocery yesterday, and saw a large pack of fresh basil leaves. I decided to prepare Pesto Pasta today served with broiled chicken breast for the mister and the boy. The boy's best friend , Christian is here since early this afternoon. They're watching old VHS tapes.
"Christian, are you staying for dinner?"
"If you'll have me, Tita Lili," he answered.
Of course he can. Always.
He also said that Pesto Pasta is okay with him.
While cooking, I was talking with my little sister on the phone via Viber. I promised her that I'd share the recipe on the blog today.
I was also cooking my oatmeal with fresh avocado and half of a banana. I wanted something warm and light for dinner tonight. I let the boys dig in while I was fixing dinner for the cats too.
When the boys started eating, I asked our guest what's the rating for my pesto pasta and chicken. He said...
"Tita Lili, they're not good. They're great!"
Yey!
"Ma, I wish you made 2 pots of it!"
Because the boy is family and of course his rating would be in favor of the chef--- ((( ME! ))), I had to confirm it from Christian if it's really good. Read: An okay rating is never acceptable for me because that simply meant not exceptional.
He said it's really great. Not just good. But really great.
So, I told the boys that I'll make a fresh pot tomorrow evening for their lunch on Monday. The boy will be bringing lunch for Christian.
When I checked the pot on the table, they ate it all up. Look!
So, I guess, I'll just share the recipe next time with the photo of the dish.
On Monday, maybe.

Avocado
I was deciding on what to eat for dinner today. I made chili for the boys, and I planned on cooking vegetable soup (potato, kale, tomato, onion, ginger, and okra) for me. My veggie soup would be so perfect for today's mid 20s °F temperature, but feels like it's 14°F. Brrr to the bones. As I have shared before, I have been eating strictly plant-based food on weekdays.
Today, all I was sure of was I wanted to eat bananas and avocado. So I scrapped the soup, and made a small amount of oatmeal and added my fruits in it.
Don't judge. This change of lifestyle has totally made me, and my body very happy, and healthy! My last visit to the doctor was fantastic. She said, "I don't know what changes you made, but just keep doing it! You're doing great!"
P.S. Before I introduced my body to all plant based food, I was extremely allergic to avocado, and some fruits. After a few months of the diet, my mouth and my throat doesn't get super itchy anymore if I have bites of it.
