My mama, the name I called my grandmother, would always make this dish growing up. It was my absolute FAVORITE thing to eat whenever we would go to her house. I was blessed to live close to my grandmother, so we would see her often. In my family, she was always known for her cooking….

Pork Bistek
FILIPINO FOOD. I know, I post a lot of these recipes but I can’t help it. Pork is obviously not the healthiest thing to make, but it tastes great 😂 Pork bistek is not something I grew up with, but my husband ABSOLUTELY loves it. It’s a good mix of salty and acidity. Enjoy! Ingredients:…

Ingredients: 5 pieces of boneless skinless chicken thighs (trying to be semi healthy, but not as healthy as baked chicken breasts) 1 tbsp…
