HOW ABOUT MALUNGGAY OMELET AND SMOOTHIE FOR BREAKFAST?
Good day Steemians! Hope you are all well.
Today, I want to share one of the most nutritious food, malunggay or moringa (scientific name, Moringa oleifera), in our yard. Malungay is a widely grown plant in the Philippines. And perhaps the easiest to grow. You can plant the seeds or just the branch itself. Most of us here, because we have access to mature trees, just plant the branch.
Studies show that Moringa contains high levels of beta-carotine, Vitamin C and E, and the phytochemical niaziminin. And since my father just had surgery, he badly needs the nutrition from this incredible plant, in order for his wounds to heal faster and his body to regain strength.
Moringa leaves can also be used in soups, like chicken soup (we call it tinolang manok), or fish soup (or tinolang isda). Or prepare it as a malunggay omelet, as shown in the outset. And actually, it can be added to many different dish.
Malunggay leaves can also be dried and used as a tea, because it helps the body to relax and promotes good night sleep. With us, we mix the powdered dried leaves, that we ourselves made, with our smoothie.
This is the Moringa Tree planted in our front yard. If it gets too high, we just cut the tree and leaves would sprout anew again! Like this tree, its newly cut so leaves are sprouting! And it's easy for me to get! Hahaha! Very friendly for my height!
I got the leaves that I need.
Here's how I prepared the omelet:
First, I took the leaves off. And this is how it would look like.
Next I diced half of an onion.
Then I prepared the eggs. I put four duck eggs, and beat them, sprinkle a pinch or two of salt to taste, and sugar. I also added black pepper, oregano powder, and broiled steak powder (but these are optional).
After which, I put the diced onions and malunggay leaves unto the eggs, and mixed well.
Then I did the normal way of frying (preheat the pan, put some oil, and fry!).
And viola! This is the outcome! Very fresh, nutritious and most importantly, delicious!
Yes, we can eat nutritious food from around us. Jehovah God prepared an abundance for us. Let's take advantage of the greens that grow in our area.
"Go, eat your food with rejoicing."--Ecclesiastes 9:7.
Our Creator causes "to grow food from the land" for mankind's enjoyment. (Psalms 104:14) And without a doubt, by using balance and moderation, we can enjoy the benefits of nutritious and delicious foods that the Creator has provided.
So, let's have breakfast then! Breakfast is ready!
Thank you for dropping by,
Ging
