As a working mom, it's an everyday dilemma for me what to cook for my family. It's not easy to juggle my work, being a mom to my toddler and the household chores. Good thing that there's an easy way to cook my favorite Caldereta. So I'm sharing with you how I cook Caldereta even when I'm busy with my work.

Some of my followers in instagram were asking me how I cooked this dish so I am writing this to share it with you Mumshies. It's very simple and easy to follow! I wrote before my recipe of cheesy tuna omelette, it's very much alike except for the presentation and how I put my cheese on it.

So here we go!

Ingredients

1 Can of Corned Tuna
3 small sized eggs or 2 medium sized eggs
2 tbsp oil
Quick Melt Cheese
Salt, Pepper, Dried Basil

Instructions

Beat the eggs in a bowl and put salt and pepper.
Add the corned tuna in the egg mixture.
Heat oil over low heat in a non-stick pan. Add the corned tuna and egg mixture and cook for about 2 - 3.
Add 8 thin slices of quick melt cheese on top. Refer to the picture above to see the formation of cheese.
Cook for about 5 minutes or until the egg is completely cooked and the cheese is melted enough.
Slowly transfer the omelette to a plate and sprinkle with dried basil.
Slice the omelette like a pizza and enjoy it with steam or fried rice!

I've always been afraid of cooking fish. It's because takot akong matalsikan ng mantika! So I'm gonna start cooking fish using the easiest to prepare, Cream Dory. Cream Dory is very accessible ingredient in the supermarket, usually filleted and frozen or thawed. The most common dish for Dory is pan-fried or steamed with sauce.

I was afraid it would be very malansa. But Jay and one of my officemates approved its taste! So here we go!

Cream Dory in Lemon Butter Sauce

Prep Time	Cook Time	Total Time
5 minutes	10 minutes	15 minutes

Ingredients

2 Cream Dory fillet
Salt, Pepper, Dried Basil
4 tbsp butter
1 1/2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp white flour
2 tbsp oil

Instructions

Melt butter in a pan for about 3 minutes, with continuous whisking, until brown, but don't overcook.
Transfer melted butter in a bowl. Add the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Stir then you can adjust lemon/salt to taste (when it has slightly cooled).
Pat fish dry using paper towel. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and flour. Turn the fish and repeat.
Heat oil over high heat in a non-stick pan. Add fish and cook for about 2 - 3 minutes turning every now and then.
Serve fish in a plate then add the lemon butter sauce.
Sprinkle with dried basil then add sliced lemon for plating.

Figuring out what to cook is one of the hardest decisions for me. Is it funny to say that I am happy whenever there's leftover from dinner? Yes! I am, because that means instant breakfast! You just have to think of ways on how to make that dish seems different from last night's meal.

So for today's recipe, I am sharing with you one of my favorite leftover dish.

Cheesy Tuna Omelette

Prep Time	Cook Time	Total Time
5 minutes	5 minutes	10 minutes

Ingredients

Leftover corned tuna
2 medium eggs
Quickmelt cheese, amount depends on how much you love cheese!
1/2 cup of milk

Instructions

In a bowl, lightly beat the eggs and milk. Set aside.
In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
When the butter is hot enough, pour in the eggs. Don't stir and let the eggs cook until the bottom starts to set.
Add your leftover tuna and cheese.
Gently flip the edge of the egg across and over. Wait for the cheese to melt.
Serve in a plate and sprinkle with dried basil. Yes, I love dried basil!

You can also use leftover cornedbeef for this recipe or add some mushrooms. It's up to you! Enjoy!

Hi Mumshies! here's one of the recipes that I always cook for our office baon. It's very simple and easy to prepare especially for those who have busy schedule like us, working moms.

I love adding dried basil in most of my dishes. It adds flavor and I love the aroma!

Achievement unlocked! My husband hates eating bell pepper. But his dish is an exception!

This dish is my husband's favorite baon. He doesn't really like eating vegetables, so I thought of adding some butter and meat, you can never go wrong with butter. And he loves it!

So here's the recipe for a quick and easy office packed lunch.
