Simple Adobo Chicken Recipe

Chicken adobo is a very common food of the Philippines, and one that is usually well received among non-Filipinos! There are several varieties on how to make it, but I like things as simple as possible! Thank you to my mom for teaching me this recipe so long ago.



Ingredients:

1/2 head garlic, crushed
1/2 cup Heinz apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup La Choy soy sauce 
1 lb chicken legs (may also use thighs, breasts, etc.)
Freshly cracked black pepper


Directions:

1. In a bowl, mix crushed garlic, vinegar, soy sauce, and pepper.

2. Mix with chicken in a nonstick pan

3. Boil, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked thoroughly.

4. Serve with jasmine rice.


How do you like to make your chicken adobo? I've heard of people baking or frying the chicken beforehand. It's interesting to see how adobo is made amongst different cooks and families!

love + light,
Clara

Dollar Tree Advent Wreath!

Dollar Tree Advent Wreath!

Easy peasy - that's how I like my crafts, lol! I've been wanting to buy an Advent wreath for so long. Now that we are social isolating, we definitely needed one ASAP. You can find some nice Advent wreaths for under $20, but I wanted this to be a special craft made with my daughter. Ours is pretty festive, but forego the embellishments for something simple and classic!

See our YouTube video here (only 3 minutes long):

As of 2020, my Dollar Tree did not sell purple or pink taper candles, so I bought mine on Amazon for around $8 (link active as of 2020): https://amzn.to/35Y42SC

But, you can totally use the Dollar Tree's white taper candles too! Just tie a purple of pink ribbon around the candle holder to signify which week of Advent you are in.

Oh, and if you'd like some sort of prayer or devotion next to your wreath, here is the one I chose:

Aldi Haul Nov 22, 2020

 I know it's been forever! I think the last time I published a video to my channel (that wasn't singing) was almost a year ago! Crazy.

The Aldi near me just opened up again (they were closed for major renovations), and wow it was worth the wait! It's beautiful, bright, and BIG! Also, they have curbside pickup - I'm going to have to look into this further to see how it works (the cost, etc.).

In the meantime, here's today's haul with this week's dinner plans. Nothing super exciting, but I'm happy to record a video today (7 MINUTES YIKES! I'm rusty!!! lol).

Miss you all!

love + light,

Clara
