Appetizers

1. Crispy Pork With Pineapple Vinegar Dip 

Fry twice para extra crispy ang pork belly mo.

Start the meal with crispy and golden chicharon! This homemade version is super special; promise, ka-level nito yung mga sine-serve sa mga restaurant. At marami ka nang maluluto sa isang recipe pa lang! Tapos samahan mo pa ng asim-tamis sawsawan for the complete experience. Swak na swak sa cravings!

2. Korean Honey Butter Chicken Wings

Para mas restaurant-quality pa ang luto mo, serve your chicken wings with ranch or bleu cheese dip.

Level up plain ol’ chicken wings with a winner sauce na pasok sa Korean food trend ngayon. Puwedeng-puwede itong papakin o ulamin with steamed rice. Dagdagan lang ng chili paste o samahan ng kimchi for a spicier kick. Para ka na rin kumain sa favorite Korean resto mo.

Mains

3. Birthday Spaghetti

Top your spaghetti with grated cheese for extra linamnam in every bite.

Hindi kumpleto ang birthday kung walang Pinoy spaghetti. But be sure to use Del Monte Sweet-Style Spaghetti Sauce dahil saktong-sakto ang pagka-sweet at savory nito. Don’t forget the hotdogs and grated cheese na favorite ng mga bagets!

4. Seafood Kare-Kare

Give everyone’s favorite kare-kare a special twist by using the freshest seafood you can find.

Favorite mo ba ang kare-kare, pero goal ng family maging healthier? Diskarte lang ‘yan. Try preparing this seafood version with squid, shrimp, tahong, and lots of veggies. Malinamnam at nakakabusong pa rin, pero lighter sa tiyan. Siguradong babalik-balikan sa buffet!

5. Murcon

Puwedeng ulam, puwede ring pang spaghetti and meatballs.

Always wanted to try making murcon pero nakaka-intimidate yung mga usual recipes? Try this version that uses ground beef and pork – mas pinadali ang procedure at pasok na pasok sa budget. Tip: kung maraming leftovers, i-diretso sa freezer for ready-to-go meals and yummy baon.

6. Chicken Hamonado

Marinate your chicken for at least two to three days. Siguradong juicy ‘yan!

Kung naghahanap ka ng simpleng handa but mapapa-wow talaga ang mga bisita mo, dito ka na sa chicken hamonado. It’s tender, juicy, and full of pineapple goodness. Plus, kaya itong lutuin in one hour or less – may time ka pang mag-prepare ng ibang ulam for your friends and family.

Dessert 

7. Fiesta Dome Cake

Use store-bought butter cake para mapabilis ang prep time.

Naghahanap ka ba ng unique dessert na super easy gawin? Celebrate good times with this no-bake dome cake. Buttery and fluffy sa labas, ultra-creamy and fruity naman sa loob. Plus, good for 20 pax na ang recipe na ito. Lakas maka-fiesta!
