We always have a lot of apples at home. That’s why I have so many apple recipes from apple cheesecake to apple crumble to the decadent apple chocolate cake. But I am not really in the mood to bake cakes these few days…possibly because I don’t want to be the one finishing the cake and ultimately adding inches to my already huge hips. So. Here’s what I did with my apples…
Having some guests coming over to dinner and you are at a lost of what to prepare? Or you are thinking of something simple and healthy for dinner? Roasting a whole chicken for dinner is actually quite easy and simple. It is healthy and takes up very little time to prepare too. You only need to season the chicken for several hours and then pop it into the oven and let the oven do the roasting.
A few months ago, I wrote about Diet foods that make you fat and this post is sort of like a continuation of that post. We can never be too careful when it comes to choosing healthy foods especially when shopping at the supermarket. Often, we get cheated by all the advertising hype of how this food is healthier, that food is better or this drink can make you slimmer.

I know I have neglected my blogs quite a lot in recent times…I don’t even know if I still get regular readers or just organic traffic. Whatever it is, I guess I can’t do much about posting here regularly due to time constraint so I will only be putting up a post around once a month.

My son was down with a horrid hacking cough for the past week or so and then he started throwing up everything yesterday. Needless to say, he was feeling rather poorly and had no appetite to eat anything at all. He couldn’t even swallow plain white bread without throwing up.
Anyway, we went to the paediatrician who gave him a shot and though he’s still running a fever, at least he’s not throwing up anymore. So, I stayed home with him and cooked a rather simple meal for him. He loves noodles and hated porridge so instead of cooking . . . → Read More: A simple chicken soup with noodles for sick days
Sundays are usually lazy, relaxing days for most people. Well, for most people except for mothers. Just like any other day, our job as mothers is never done. And on Sundays, when I am not at work, I have to cook for the family, do the house chores and take care of the kids. Unfortunately, my husband works on Sundays so I am usually home alone with the kids. So, when I am feeling particularly lazy on a Sunday, I would prepare one of my all-in-one meals or one-pot meals or one-dish meals, well, whatever you wanna call it.
Cod fish is often steamed, deep fried, broiled and baked but it is very seldom that we hear of it being stir-fried. Well, since I prefer stir-frying most of my food, I thought I’d try using this healthy and easy method to prepare cod fish. Fortunately, it turned out quite good!
It is rather easy and though many would have the concern of spoiling the fish or overcooking it, I felt that if we cook it in just the right length of time, it turns out quite okay. Absolutely delicious if I may say so.
