My Own Crabstick Sandwich

John and I love eating crab stick sandwich at Coffee shops. I've created my home version so when the craving kicks in we don't have to go out.

Below is how I make Crab stick Sandwich at home.

Ingredients: Walter's Sugar Free Bread, crab sticks, egg, mayonnaise, lettuce, salt and pepper, ripe mango (optional) but yummier.

Procedure: Spread the Egg sandwich spread, place the lettuce, then crabstick, then lettuce (the more the healthier), if you have mango, place after the lettuce.

Chinese Tofu and Mushroom in Oyster Sauce

Today is my 38th birthday, so I'm cooking for myself a healthy food that fills me up, no need for rice.

Ingredients: Chinese tofu, mushroom, white onion, Lee-Kum Kee oyster sauce, ground pepper

Procedure: Fry Tofu, set aside. Saute onion and garlic, add mushroom. Put oyster sauce, depending on how salty you want it, dash ground pepper. Add the fried mushroom. Simmer in very low heat until mushroom is cooked, add the tofu.

Egg Sandwich Spread

Growing up in a family with 6 kids, my mother always prepare egg sandwich spread to make sure there's always food to eat when all her kids come home from school.

Here's my version:

Ingredients: Mayonaise, salt, ground black pepper, McCormick basil leaves (in this case, I used Italian seasoning for I ran out of basil leaves)

Why I put basil or italian seasoning? I feel that when I put either of the two, the after-taste of mayonaise doesn't stick into my tongue. I'm not much into mayo.
