A Is The Grand Winner For San Marino Tuna

I love San Marino Tuna, I like my Mini Ipad!

The moment I saw this contest in the Facebook, I already told myself I will join and go for any of the 2 prizes. I never thought of  the grand prize,  all I know is to make a healthy recipe with San Marino Tuna. At first, I thought I can no longer have an entry because of my busy schedule-  my bosses arrived for a vacation during the duration of the contest. Good thing, the San Marino company extended the contest for another week, that's why I thank God for hearing my prayer. I am not a chef, neither own a food related establishment but I am a food lover and I love cooking. I love reading books or magazines with foods and I one of my favorites is watching any shows with food related.... from Iron Chef to Rachel..., from Kitchen Hell to Curiousity...,or  from Cupcakes War to Martha, etc..Learning from them? who knows the blogger will be a good cook someday...

Aliz Winning Recipe

Ever since, my family love to buy Tuna cans and we love to experiment it with other ingredients, that's why I didn't hesitate to join. Since the mechanics is to make a healthy recipe out of  San Marino products,  what captured in my imagination is to create a recipe with the following ingredients or should I call it stars in my direction?

San Marino corned tuna and banana blossoms are the main characters in my recipe, 

• San Marino Corned Tuna -  lots of healthy benefits and according to Ms. Kris Aquino,"less oil, no preservatives and the Omega-3 helps keep her heart healthy!"

• Banana Blossom or Banana Flower have many good benefits to our body especially to our heart. According to one of the commenter in FB, he mentioned that it is also anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant.

***some extras are; 

• olive oi l - very good for the heart, 

• red and green bell peppers (can be eaten raw) - with vitamin C and A, low calorie, contain lutein, a phyto   nutrient that has been proven to have a protective benefit against macular degeneration.

•  garlic, onion, pepper- widely known for it's healing properties
• vinegar - significantly lower values for serum total cholesterol and triacylglycerol" and other health benefits
•  soy sauce - a good source of protein

.... and I never expect that  

• Cucumber can be the "konta bida"., hehehe!. But to tell you frankly, I came up with the idea of using a cucumber cups and I never regret of using it because; first, I never wanted to put my filler in a plastic cup. Second, just like other people using a cucumber cups- for me, it indeed can give a good presentation. Third, the good benefits of cucumber (no doubt)-especially if they are fresh. The cucumber can be use by anyone in any presentation  but the mere fact maybe of collaborating the corned tuna using the "Puso ng Saging" made me win.

• Banana Blossom or Banana Flower have many good benefits to our body especially to our heart. According to one of the commenter in FB, he mentioned that it is also anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant.

Yes, I am an avid fan of San Marino and it will always be a partner in my kitchen. Imagine, if you are lazy to cook, just open a can.. Voila!. there you are, eating already a healthy food. I shared all these "can pasalubong" to Aling Loida, Ghe, and kids of MTA, and some of my sweet neigbors. Product with healthy benefits is worth to have it, hoping to cook more of their recipes too. Thank you again for my mini Ipad. Now, I think you give me inspirations to cook more and have lots of photos using my very cool prize.
