Being a mom, I know how important it is to give my family not just yummy, but also healthy and powerful food everyday. However, being a working mom, time is always a constraint. Watching the Power Meal series help me with this time problem. Because each video will come up with a recipe, which incorporates the goodness of oats, developed with the busy everyday life of the Filipinos in mind.

We have our own version of Quaker Power Meals too. My husband loves making what he called healthy Arrozcaldo with, of course, Quaker Oats.

This healthy Arrozcaldo, just like Champorado, is perfect not just for breakfast but also during cold rainy season like now. I also like eating this when I am sick and Daddy is always happy to cook one for me. Sweet hubby right? 

Cooking healthy Arrozcaldo with Quaker Oats is easy. Here's Daddy's recipe (source):
