Lawuy for Noche Buena, Why Not!

Lessen the guilt this holiday season binging and indulgences,
cooked law-uy.
Was planning on nilagang manok,
a dish that was being cooked for a family tradition for Christmas
that I saw in a video post
(sorry forgot the guy’s name who posted that).
For a change,
having a Filipino healthy dish
like this lawuy or utan bisaya
is most welcome at a point in your older life
when you realize you cannot always make the holidays
an excuse to indulge always and eat unhealthily.
With the simplicity of Jesus birth,
having something new for noche buena that is simple, healthy and easy to cook
was something that made me appreciate the food we had been blessed this year.
