FollowHere’s yet another bento set lunch for my girls prepared this week, something that’s quick to prepare and does not need elaborate preparation and cooking. For busy working mums like me, you can cook a big portion and deep freeze in smaller portions for future consumption. The Terriyaki chicken strips go well along with rice…

Happy Weekend Peeps!
Here is yet another Bento set for this week for the girls… Sushi bread. I replaced the vinegar Japanese rice with wholemeal walnut bread. Fillings are the same – ultra thin crispy fried eggs, Japanese cucumber and a spread of mayo. Starter was organic papaya and dessert – organic purple and yellow corn tortilla chips,…
Healthy Lunch – Fruits and Veggie Juice and Brocolli Potato Egg Salad
I prepared something really healthy for lunch for the kiddos a few days ago: A salad of boiled brocolli, potatoes, hard boiled eggs, tuna, onions, mayo, cherry tomatoes and jullienned cucumbers… I got the idea of potato – brocolli salad from the Japanese restaurant that we frequent to. This set of cup, bowl and tray…
Wholesome Pancakes
Today I made pancakes for the girls. Normally I would use organic wholemeal flour but the other day, I bought a pack of PanJack pancake flour to try. For added nutrients and protein, I added 2 big scoops of milk powder and 3 eggs into the batter. The result was REWARDING! My girls loved the…
Udon Noodles With Anchovies + Chicken Broth
I whipped this up for the kids’ lunch last week. It was so lip smacking delish that they all requested for it again the next day! Here’s the pot of soup made from lightly pan fried anchovies and chicken bones, boiled for an hour. While the pot of soup is wholesome, the commercially made fish…
This Is What Happens If She Eats Rice Or Porridge
Tuna-Egg-Onion Maya Open Sandwich
Ever since Alycia started Standard 1, her appetite has been at an all-time low, especially during lunch. Most of the food that she previously liked and could whack a big bowl, she can’t even finish half a bowl now. I guess the lack of shut-eye, rushing and a change in the time which she normally…
Light, Simple And She Likes It!
One afternoon last week, I was searching for lunch ideas for Baby. All her cooked frozen food in the freezer were utilized and I was too lazy to cook. Plus, I didn’t want Baby to get sick of eating pasta, spaghetti, green tea or buckwheat noodles and fried vermicelli all the time. So I prepared something really…
Roasted Pork Ribs-Abalone-Chicken-Dried Oyster Yummylicious Porridge
My girls don’t really fancy porridge, unless the porridge is cooked with tons of ingredients and is full of flavor and tasty like this one: Porridge with roasted pork ribs, abalone, chicken (marinated with sesame seed oil and sea salt) and dried oysters. Even Baby who dislikes porridge and mushy stuff loved this porridge and whacked…
Fish bolognaise pasta
I whipped up this meal for Baby last week – fish bolognaise pasta and she LOVED it. I had only intended to cook this for Baby but it turned out that my 2 older gals loved them too. Next time, I shall cook this for everyone. Nothing makes me happier than seeing my kids enjoy my creations.…
Steamed Fish And Pumpkin With Butter And Mixed Herbs
This is one of Baby’s latest favorite dishes: Ma Yau fish slice with organic Japanese pumpkin (this type of pumpkin tastes very much better than regular local ones), McCormick mixed herbs and butter. This is before steaming. This is how it looks like after 8 minutes of steaming in the pot. Baby spoon-feeding herself. There…
Wholesome, Tasty And Fast-To-Fix Lunches
Whenever I run out of lunch ideas, sandwiches and toasts will always be served and they are a great hit with my 2 older gals too. Here’s what we had this week: Tuna and hard boiled kampung chicken (free range chicken) eggs all mashed up and mixed with a heap of Philadelphia Light cheese spread, in replacement…
Mushroom Soup Pasta
I whipped up a very tasty pasta dish using Campbell’s mushroom soup for the girls the other day. I used elbow macaroni and Disney’s Princess veggie pasta. This is so easy peasy to cook and the girls all loved them, especially rascal #2 who wanted to eat the pasta for 2 days straight and asked for it again and…
Buckwheat Pancake
Sometime early this year, my sil from New Zealand gave me a box of gluten-free buckwheat pancake flour. Last week, I finally made the pancakes for my girls. I used 1/2 the packet of pancake flour. I added 3 eggs, 2 tablespoon of Aly and Sher’s Dutch Lady 456 milk powder and a pinch of salt into the…

Mac N Cheese With Tuna
Mac n cheese is one dish that my girls will never ever get fed up with. Most of the time, I cook it for them from scratch using their formula milk powder or fresh milk, butter, cheddar cheese and grated parmesan cheese. But sometimes I use San Remo instant Macaroni Cheese (supposedly no MSG). The…
