Nowadays, we have to be more intentional on what we are to feed our families. We have to serve meals that are not only delicious, but nutritious as well.
In this day and age where time is of the essence and gone are the days where you can afford to cook two ulams per meal –both time and money-wise– it is important to have in our arsenal vegetable recipes that can be a ‘stand-alone’ ulams because of the taste and nourishment it provides.
Here is a list of yummy, stand-alone Filipino vegetable recipes under P100.00 to make:
1. Laing — This one is just so yummy and nutritious. Who can go wrong with gabi and coconut oil and some bits of pork or shrimp that are, in the vernacular, nagmamantika? Check out a good recipe from Panlasang Pinoy here.
2. Gising-Gising — another recipe that utilizes coconut milk, this yummy dish can be spicy or not but for sure you would really need loads of steaming white rice. Get the recipe from Casa Veneracion here.
