Still trying to eat healthier…and still trying to lose the extra stuffing around my waist and hips created by the holiday seasons (and that of Armin’s), but to be honest, I am running out of new ideas to make it all easier and tastier. I have to admit that I am not a big fan of vegetables and salads. I mean, I eat them and love them but only as side dishes…so I guess I CAN NEVER BE A VEGETARIAN (*sad face with a sigh*). But we do still eat meat, only lesser because Armin had some problems with his uric acid. We are mostly trying to reduce carbs.

So when I saw that avocados were now available in the market here, my first thought was to make... AVOCADO ICE CREAM!!! Hehehe, yeah that was the first thing that came to my mind. But I remembered we have to lose some weight...so no ice cream and sweets too! Maybe on our cheat day then..hehe! But for now, I made this creamy Avocado Dressing! Yum!

In the Philippines, avocado is usually used for making cold dessert and drinks..aha! More about that in another post!

For the salad, I just used what is already in our pantry like carrots, pickled red cabbage (a German thing) and olives. Since I still have Philippine mangoes, I decided to add that for some contrast! 

Fresh grated red cabbage, of course, can also be used for this recipe.

    Hi Bebs, have you tried to make Embotido. I love to see that on your blog if it's possible with video. Also how can I make my cake become moist, please advise.

    Thank you

      Hi Laura, you're in luck! I already wrote about both before and here are the links: Embutido Recipe and Moist Cake . We are working on adding videos to our recipe and will make the Embutido in our priority list. Additional tips on baking moist cakes: try not to overbake your cake or cupcakes. It depends also on the recipe you are using but usually, the batter should not be too sticky that it is difficult to stir if so, add some vegetable oil. 🙂
