Savoury Meal

Sautéed mushrooms in beef bits
remain savoury
with marinated boiled eggs
as fruit salad reigns
midst strawberry shake
for "thank* God"
burp!

*1Thessalonians 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Love it Beata - especially the complimentary belch! So fun and in our gratitude for this delicious meal we do give joyful thanks to God - who invented the burp lest we explode! Blessings my friend!

I could do without the "marinated boiled eggs", but the rest sounds quite "savoury" indeed! And "burp" to you, too.

Lol, Beata, interestingly, my Filipino friend's mom had made Pinakbet yesterday, steeped stewed veggies with pork and baby shrimp (my friend knows my likes and dislikes, softened veggies--no prawns--no pumpkin--balanced pork and fat, cannot be meaty). He visits me alot and I treat him to restaurants, and in turn, his mom cooks for us sometimes. Also, I am grateful for your visit my friend, Aloha~William

Oops! Forgot the rice, whenever she makes her hot dishes, she covers it with the main course on top, so when you spoon it, it'll come up as Pinakbet with rice added, and my compliments on your blessed win!
