Holy Week Recipe


Holy Week calls for an entire week of fasting and abstinence. This means that your list of meal choices gets drastically trimmed down. But there are still plenty of meals you can whip up at home that are still scrumptious but guilt-free. Here are some great dishes with their corresponding recipes to try out courtesy of Philips.

Prepare a simple pasta dish with portabello mushrooms for the family this Holy Week and stay true to your fasting and abstinence duties. Usually an extender for meat dishes, the mushroom will surely provide a healthy alternative from the usual meaty pasta. Definitely this will be one of the go-to dishes for an entire week.

But just because you have to abstain from meat, doesn’t mean you have to forego nutrients. Seal in all the nutrients of all the ingredients of the pasta dish as well as every meal you wish to cook with the Philips Induction Cooker HD4932.


By utilizing 2100 W high power for fast heating, the Philips Induction Cooker HD4932 reduces 1/3 of your cooking time, which ultimately results in more nutrients sealed in your food. It quickly starts cooking at the touch of the start key and is also extra safe for children with its cool-to-touch surface.

Another great meal you can’t afford not to cook for the Holy Week is something freshly steamed. If you’re fond of steamed dishes, steamed lapu-lapu (grouper fish) might’ve instantly popped into your head already.

Fish in itself is already a healthy and delicious meal. But for it to be steamed instead of fried only makes it even more mouth-watering and rich with nutrients.

Boost the flavor of your steamed lapu-lapu with your own combination of herbs and spices using the Philips Food Steamer HD9140. Its Flavour Booster improves steamed food with delectable herbs and spices without doing anything more than popping herbs into the booster. The steamer requires little effort to operate with its digital timer and a Keep Warm function to keep food ready for serving all the time.

  
Finally, what’s a healthy Holy Week meal without the finest fruit juices? Make tasty and fresh fruit juices at home without any hassle using the Philips Juicer HR1871.

The Philips Juicer HR1871features an extra large feeding tube that allows whole fruits and vegetables to be put in and juiced without pre-cutting or peeling. It is also easy to use and clean, and produces 10% more juice compared to other juicers. It can also juice up to 2.5 liters of juice in one go without having to empty the pulp container. A powerful 800 W motor ensures that you can juice even the toughest ingredients. Try mixing a unique recipe of organic pineapple, ginger and apple juice or mix and match your own fruits and veggies with the family.

Make abstinence and fasting something to look forward to with these healthy yet guilt-free recipes for the entire family.And amid all the vacation plans for the Holy Week, be sure to remind yourself that the Holy Week is also a time dedicated to reflection.
