butikilyo.com, thanks for the recipes of delicious filipino dishes. now all i have to do is print the ones i need and start cooking!
Hi Jasmine,
Thanks for the comment.
Check out the site for more recipes soon.
hi, villalobos! thank you for your response. actually, i don’t eat pork and beef so what i do is when i see recipes that contain pork and or beef as well as other ingredients or products made from pork and or beef, i substitute chicken for them or tofu. i’m a vegetarian who eats chicken and fish. i really love veggies and they’re what i eat most of the time.
Hi Jasmine,
I admire your discipline. I wish I could be a vegetarian too. Back in the Philippines I took for granted the affordability and the freshness of our vegetables there - the sitaws, the eggplants, snowpeas, etc.. I just realized how expensive the tropical vegetables are here in the U.S. Keep on cooking.
