Tortilla española is a perfect brunch.

A complete meal in itself, it has all the Go-Grow-Glow components.

Potatoes as carbs; eggs, and in this case, more protein from the mackerel; the rest of the ingredients as vitamin & mineral plus the healthy oils if you use virgin olive oil.

Of course, not a single month passed without ginisang monggo.

It is also hard to imagine having monggo without a fish pair. This time it's the seasonal tamban (a type of sardine).

Combo rice toppings of soy braised beef & stir-fried vegs with chicken liver & gizzard.

Probably, one of the best-selling rice topping dishes sold in the Philippines.

Beef stew (cocido) with chinese cabbage & potatoes

Char-grilled hito (cat fish) dipped in bagoong (fish sauce), calamansi & labuyo (hot chili peppers)
