the afternoon snack




today was the first day i had that i felt really good. the last few days was terrible for me, i was suffering from bad stomach aches and slight fever, it sucks to be sick. finally today i was up and about and excited to clean my refrigerator and freezer from all the food that was stocked throughout the holidays. first i started with the chicken bones and a few wings and thighs i stuffed inside my freezer for stock. finally i made my chicken stock, strained it and place it into small containers that i can again put in the freezer for future use ,so that's done!
well with the boiled chicken meat (from the thigh and wings) i shredded them and place it into a container . fortunately my husband called around 5pm and asked if i could make him a snack. Hmmmm great timing i have flavored chicken meat and i had a few tortilla wraps in the freezer and some bottled bbq sauce my mom sent during the holidays. then i thought of making some chicken wraps. sauteed the chicken in a skillet with onions and chopped garlic seasoned it with S&P and poured some BBQ sauce over it wallah chicken filling for the wraps. Heated the tortilla wraps placed the chicken filling in the middle grated some cheese on it and fold. i wanted some more spice to go with the wraps so i decided to make aioli (garlic mayo) and place a dash of the bbq sauce on it and mix. poured the aioli on the wraps!!! it tasted great.....but the best part was when my husband came home he had a plate of chicken wraps on the table specially made for him.

my first entry .....

I have been toying with this idea of creating my own blog page for quite some time now but never got around doing it....finally here i am ....my first entry.

after tons of inspirations and ideas, opinions and questions in my head that is just ready to pop out for sharing i finally took the next step.

my passion for food is what i will be writing about, since this is what keeps me going and what keeps me inspired and happy i am glad i can share it with you.

Food is a constant in our everyday lives and most of the important events that happen to us usually if not always have food present. birthdays, celebrations, death, anniversaries , engagements , simple gatherings with friends so on and so forth. so let us celebrate life....as Wolfgang Puck says it "LIVE ,LOVE AND EAT"
