Chicken, Spinach, Cauliflower Bowl

These chicken protein bowls are always what I fall back on no matter how meal plans are changed up over the weeks, or months, even years. They are dependable in terms of ease of preparation, nutrition and taste.


Those in touch with my blog would have known by now how I usually rely on store-bought rotisserie chicken in protein bowls. Though I am fully aware it is not difficult to cook a whole chicken from scratch, I simply cannot afford the time (and energy) when there are other commitments to juggle with.

Since I use store-bought rotisserie chicken quite frequently, I have to make sure of the quality. So I try to get better quality ones - plain roasted (preferred) or classic roast (more widely available in stores) using just chicken, salt and black pepper. Nothing artificial when it comes to flavorings/seasonings.


Cordyceps Flowers Steamed Cod EnPapillote

Parchment cooking En Papillote did not fail me. This Asian-Style Steamed Cod Fish Fillets with Cordycep Flowers, Gojiberries, Woodear Mushrooms turned out wonderfully delicious.


Cordyceps Flower or Cordyceps militaris is a type of mushrooms in family Cordycipitaceae, and are usually cooked in soups. 

Instead of steaming the fillets over the stove, the fish wrapped in "parcels" are "steamed"/roasted in the oven.


Dragon Fruit Muffins - No Eggs, No Flour

These Dragon Fruit Muffins are adapted from my Homemade Muffin and Bakes category. The red hue is coming from red dragon fruit puree.


Basically, I used a foundation oat muffins recipe for this Dragon Fruit Muffins. Instead of mashed ripe banana that is usually added as natural sweetener, dragon fruit smoothie pack (100% dragon fruit puree) is used instead.
