Ginisang Monggo at Pritong Tuyo

Every time I was at home, I used to asked my family on what they want to eat during the day. When we were talking about meals yesterday, our kids suggested to cook this dish for our Sunday lunch meal.

Granting their request proves that nothing beats "lutong bahay" dishes over foods served at fine restaurants or fast food chains that are present nowadays.

It's not the cost incurred when dining out but its more of the assurance at the food served during your meal time were guaranteed fresh and clean. Most importantly, it was cooked according to your taste, flavor and other preference.

More so, it made me realized that foods doesn't need to be expensive to make it delicious. 

It's always a challenge to all Mothers to cook affordable meals to be shared for the whole family. This dish is best served with "crunchy fried dried fish".
