Other kind of snack

This topic sounds very light,in which I would like to talk about the simple snack of some people and me who lived in the province, especially to those who lived in the farm far from the city proper.Here in our place we have no bakery,no fastfood and other food stall,but we can buy bread with low quality on a low price.

Me and family are rarely go to the town to buy our food,only my husband who will used to travel everyday.But there are some grocery store that are available in our neighborhood ,but their stocks are not complete unlike the groceries in the town.

Here are some other snacks that people here used to eat.

Lugaw

This is the first one snack for the kids and even with adults,we called this lugaw,there is no other ingredient with this but only with rice and sugar.My daughter used to eat this yesterday which her grandmother have cooked it.But I didn't want to eat more of it ,because I avoid more sugar consumptions daily because our family had a hereditary disease, a diabetes.And it's good to be paired with;

Dried fish

This is a perfect match of lugaw for me, the lugaw taste sweet while the dried fish taste salty ,it's a good combination for me.Since I was a kid this is what my mother have to prepared for us.This is how simple life we had.

Left over rice (we called it bahaw)

When there is no lugaw ,we also eat bahaw,or left over rice from what we cooked in the morning or in the afternoon.Hmmmm,it's sugar again,so I only eat this sometimes.Its good to eat with bare hands ,as long as you washed your hands very well.

Left over adobo

This food was cooked for lunch and because it wasn't finished already,we also can eat this and serve as our snack,it taste a little bit sweet but the meat wasn't tender ,because I have a very short span of time of cooking that day.

And of course we also have coffee after eating,not a soda.But I rarely drink this ,it's just sometimes when I eat something oily and fats .

As you can see this foods are not supposed to be called as snack,maybe the snack with some people are burger,bread,pizza,milk tea and etc.But when life getting hard ,it demands us to tighten our budget and to make sure ourselves not to be hungry,we will make an option in which to meet the needs of our body,which is to eat.Maybe,it's an idea of being practical ,here in the province .

Rice is the basic food of every household here,and they were very happy if they can buy meat, or anything that seems delicious over the counter.

What is you snack?Have you tried to have a snack like this?

Economize our resources because it is very limited and we don't have a bigger income.Our budget is just enough to eat three times a days and have a small savings,and for other things,that's why we will used what ever we have to provide the family.

At least we will not feel the hungriness each day,it's okay to recycle foods daily.

Thanks for reading this,just thinking what to post each day is very challenging for me.

Have a blessed day.

I can relate this sis. Yung dried fish talaga. Sometimes we eat that with saging. Yung hilaw na saging then put some water to boiled it para ma cook siya. Sobrang sarap talaga as afternoon snack namin.

I love the Adobo sis. It's my favorite. I always cook it as my viand since I was a kid I really like Adobo a lot.🤤
