Happy weekend!

Eggs, tuyo, instant noodles. If not that lazy, beans.

When outside in Baguio, meron pa yung karinderya sa Porta with 55 peso budget meal na 2 rice, 2 meat, and sabaw.

Rice mixed in a bit of soy sauce especially pag may halong calamansi. Unhealthy pero it lowkey slaps for me

Peanut butter sandwich. I can live (and have lived) off of it for a few days. That and liver spread sandwich.

During the height of the pandemic, I learned about peanut butter on instant noodles and I found it amazing. Also instant noodles on bread.

I do earn enough for proper meals, but at times I get too lazy to prepare (i.e. buy) food and the unbalanced/unhealthy “meal options” above are just very convenient.

Unripe (but not too unripe) saba bananas dipped in fish bagoong.

Also, lugaw/arroz caldo/goto with nothing in it but rice. I’ve even made an imitation version of it via (instant) oatmeal, instant noodle seasoning, guinisa mix, and some grated (chicken) bouillon cubes.

Tortang talong? Poverty meal pa ba yun? Kasi minsan mahal ng talong o itlog.
