Simple Recipes

Yes! I just celebrated my 26th birthday last June 25 and well, only few knew about it since I removed my birthday information on my Facebook account(it really works if you don't want to broadcast how old you are hehehe). Anyway, on that day I decided to make a fruit salad  for my family ,so I bought the one gallon of fruit cocktail, one can of condense milk and 2 boxes of nestle cream which was about Php 280.00 all in all.

Actually making a fruit salad is as easy as one, two, three ... All you have to do is to follow the steps below:

1. Drain the syrup from the fruit cocktail.  
2. Place the drained fruits on a bowl.
3. Mix all ingredients, the cream, the drained fruits and the condense milk.  You could also add some cheese, sugar palm ("kaong"), nata de coco and some raisins if you like to add more colors and taste to your salad. 
4. Then after mixing all ingredients in a bowl, let it chill for awhile and then you could serve afterwards.  

Easy right? I was planing to take a picture of my work unfortunately there was no camera available.  I'll just make another one and take a photo of it soon.  By the way next time I'm planning to make a mango float since it is easy to prepare too.  All you need are a few pieces of ripe mangoes, ten pieces would do,a box or a pack of graham crackers, two box or can of nestle cream and two cans of condense milk.  For those who have no idea on how to prepare such desert all you have to do is to follow the steps below:

1. First peel the mangoes and slice them into thin pieces.  Set it aside.  
2. Crushed the graham cracker and layer it in a square pan, or you could just put the graham directly on the pan without crushing it.  
3. Mix the nestle cream and condensed milk in a bowl.  
4. Put some mixture of it on the square pan just enough to cover the layer of graham then put another layer of mangoes above it.  Just repeat the procedures until you have used everything.  
5. Just like the fruit salad, let it chill.  I suggest it would be best to have it chill overnight.  The the following day you could serve the frozen mango float to your family or guest.  

Another easy recipe, right?  I hope you could find some time to try making it with your family and friends.  Until next time. If you have other ways on how to make a fruit salad or a mango float just feel free to post it on this site.
