Sticking to the same routine day after day can get boring. Likewise, you’ll find that eating the same dish or type of food every day can be uninviting to your and your family’s palate. It’s not that you no longer find classic, everyday meals delicious. It’s just that the more frequent you consume it, the less inviting it gets.

 

There’s no need to avoid cooking the same dishes. Often, all you need to do is to spice things up a little and give its taste a new appeal. Same recipe, but made extra special.

 

To give the typical, everyday Filipino dishes some delightful spin, use NESTLÉ® All Purpose Cream. Your loved ones will find that rich, creamy texture surprisingly oh-so-good!

 

  1. Chicken Pastel

Chicken Pastel in Creamy Sauce

Chicken pastel is a hearty and yummy stew made with chicken, sausages, carrots, peas, potato, and a creamy sauce. The dish is adapted from Spain’s chicken filling covered in a flaky crust called pastel de pollo. The Filipino version retains the ingredients sans the crust, pairing the stew with rice instead.


This well-loved dish is a winner among kids, family members, and relatives because of its comforting taste. You can make it extra creamy by adding NESTLÉ All Purpose Cream, like our comforting Creamy Chicken Pastel recipe.

 

  1. Beef in Creamy Mushroom Sauce

Tender, beefy, and savory—these three words best describe what a perfectly cooked roast beef with mushroom sauce should taste. This dish only needs a few steps and ingredients, and a pan to make, but it requires a couple of hours to cook to ensure the slabs of beef are tender and juicy.


The mushroom sauce that marbles the beef is what pulls this dish together. Our Roast Beef with Creamy Mushroom Sauce recipe is an extra creamy version for that added dose of indulgence.
