Foodie Experiments: Tuna Crunch Surprise

A tangy, refreshing, tasty treat full of proteins and vitamins. I made this one when I had to monitor my son's health.

Ingredients:

2 cans of Century Tuna Chunks
1 pack of Del Monte Pineapple Tidbits
1 bottle Kewpie Japanese style Mayonaisse
2 large cloves of garlic, finely chopped
1/2 Onion, finely chopped
1 small bag of Croutons
iodized salt
finely ground black pepper

Heat up about 1 tablespoon of cooking oil then add the garlic.
after a few seconds (before the garlic turns brown), add the tuna chunks, separating and mixing them as you would with canned corned beef.
Pour in half of the juice from the pineapple tidbits pack into the pan. Dispose of the rest of the liquid, then add the pineapple tidbits. Mix until some of the tidbits shows signs of caramelizing.
Add the onions, a dash of iodized salt and a dash of black pepper.

Transfer to a bowl, add the mayonaisse and mix thoroughly.
Add the croutons as needed while mixing.

This dish is a filling healthy snack, or viand.

You can add lettuce if you want.

I prefer this served from the fridge if its served as a snack. Also goes well with potato chips.

Eating a Nestle Kimy Krazy Banana

Beat the summer heat in a krazy way.

Nestle Kimy recently released its Krazy Banana ice cream on a stick and it has been a unique experience eating it.

By now everyone knows that you can peel away the jelly cover to reveal the vanilla ice cream inside. The jelly is pre cut but care is needed to peel it off like a banana. Genius, I tell you...pure genius!!!!

I found myself enjoying the peeling and eating the jelly more than the ice cream itself. Leaving my son with a plain vanilla ice cream on a stick.

Never Again: Frozen Grapes

There's a "buy 1 kilo of seedless black grapes take 1 kilo of crimson grapes for free" promo in SM Makati Supermarket for P250++ this morning...I don't know how long it would last though.

So all you grapes enthusiasts out there go grab your share. Not to worry, the taste and quality of these grapes are good. I got one myself.

Now, I have 1 kilo of crimson grapes all to myself... and I do love cold, crispy grapes...so why not take it a step faster by putting these babies in the freezer.

Minutes later, the upper layer of grapes were frozen.

And with a bite, the texture of the fruit was ruined. The sweentess is also toned down a bit. Now I know I'm never gonna do that again.

Now you know.
