Vegie-Pancit

 : Aime R. Sario

A new pride of Tabio,Mankayan,Benguet was discovered for children and even for children-at-heart who would not like to eat vegetables. Now, this people can eat vegetable whenever they eat pancit because the noodles of the  pancit is made out of varieties of vegetables .This vegetables are dried-up then made into flour and baked to noodles. This dark-green noodles in color attracts attention for vegetable haters and it is heavenly delicious too that would defeat the local, ordinary, tasteless and less nutritive noodles that we commonly use. This is an excellent idea for all of us especially to less fortunate people who can’t afford expensive noodles because this is very affordable. Life is made easier even to our food so let us support our nature’s gift especially to our health.

Pure Filipino foods are no doubt are one of the most affordable and edible foods that have ever been eaten. The foods are very simple which is made by additives, herbs and local market products specially those which are gathered in a fresh community. Ingredients are very cheap and common to the market. Most are chemically free from preservatives and other chemicals so it is interpreted that most Filipino foods are naturally processed and made. Even if it is made simple, it tastes flavorful for all types of people specially those who are unsatisfied if it is about food. You can make this food in your own home even if you’re not a professional cook or chef for these foods is specially known as “lutong-bahay”.
