An Unlikely Breakfast from Ilocos This is my unlikely breakfast for today. After my cup of oatmeal, I'm having some left over viands from last night - dinakdakan and pinakbet - plus two hard boiled eggs. Eggs have been a staple food for me when I'm trying to cut weight. It is easy to prepare and provides protein. Dinakdakan is actually an appetizer but it has become a main dish among Filipinos. It originated from Ilocos. It is usually made of boiled and grilled pig parts such as the face, ears, liver, or intestines. A lime juice dressing is added along with onions and pepper. Pinakbet is another Ilocano recipe made up.of different vegetables, fish, and pork with a base of shrimp or fish paste. What unusual meal have you had recently? #foodtrip #foodphotography #breakfast #eggs #hardboiledeggs #dinakdakan #pinakbet #Allenwrites
