#RECIPE Spicy Sichuan Chicken - Make this delicious Spicy Sichuan Chicken at home in less than 15min

#Recipe #SpicySichuanChicken #ChineseCuisine #VanLifeCooking

This is a very easy dish and have been a favorite in our home.
The ingredients are very simple yet the taste have a big punch. You can have this vegetarian version by swapping chicken with tofu or other veggie meat that you like.

We are trying to make dish that we can use in our soon VanLife and this is definitely going to be part of it. You can cook it outside or while camping or in your RV.
This dish cost us less than $3 and it is a lot. If you don’t eat much this dish can be enjoyed by 2 person.
Like I said in the video, if you can’t find the Sichuan peppercorns, you can still enjoy this as a Spicy stir fry chicken.

Here’s the ingredients:

1 cup diced chicken (or pork)
3 tbsp hot chili oil
5 pieces dried pepper
1 tsp Sichuan peppercorns
4 stalk green onions cut into 1 inch
***optional***
1 tsp chili garlic sauce
1/4 cup diced onion
1/4 cup chopped zucchini
1/4 cup sliced mushrooms

#RECIPE Jianbing How to make Jianbing from home - Easy step by step Famous Chinese street food 煎饼 煎餅

#Jianbing #ChineseFood #ChineseStreetFood #StreetFood

Jianbing (simplified Chinese: 煎饼; traditional Chinese: 煎餅; pinyin: jiānbǐng; literally: 'fried pancake") is a traditional Chinese street food similar to crepes. It is a type of bing generally eaten for breakfast and hailed as "one of China's most popular street breakfasts."

We lived in China for 5 years and have spent 2 years of that in Beijing. Jianbing is one of those Chinese food that we missed since we moved to US (beside hot pot of course lol). I have been wanting to make this food for so long but not sure if it’s gonna give me the same authentic flavor we love and enjoy.

Now I am happy that we don’t have to miss this food anymore because I can finally make it from home any time of the day 😜

It is best to use cast iron pan but a nonstick will do too.

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup flour (I used Korean pancake mix here)

1 cup water 

1 egg

1/4 tsp bean sauce 

1/4 tsp hoisin sauce 

1/4 tsp chili garlic sauce 

1/2 tbsp chopped green onions 

1/2 tbsp cilantro 

1 strip (1/2 inch width) fried flour tortilla or fried pizza dough for more authentic flavor and crunch. I used the pork skin here because I am experimenting and have realized I would stick with my fried tortilla 😜

Let us know how’s yours turned out.

Riding the MotoTec Velocifero Mad 1600w Electric Scooter to the park

It’s a very nice day today so the whole family decided to go for a bike ride. My husband jerry rigged a phone holder on my bike and I use that to take this video, I think it works fine except in some areas that is a little blurred and bumpy.

I have been wanting to get a good action cam but cannot justify the price and would rather just save every money we can to make the VanLife possible this year.

You can see how nice and easy it is to ride the MotoTec Velocifero Mad 1600w Electric scooter. Like most electric vehicle, The Velocifero is very quiet even on a bumpy and rough road. You can see some of our adventures in our YouTube Channel (link at the ride side of our page).

We’ve had this bike for a year now and still working despite the rough use of it. Just make sure you tighten the bolts and nuts and clean the parts once in a while to make sure that they will last longer than expected.

Thank you for watching ❤️

Quote of the Day

 “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Love how deep the meaning of this quote to me is. I think growing up, up to this very day, this is very true. I never really go to what most says I should be and have proven to most that despite all that they say - I made it! I have walked the trail that I feel is right for me and hope that somehow I have touched one's life in a way that only I can do.

How cute is this armadillo hunting for his food on our hike at Colorado Bend State Park

I am always fascinated with armadillos and this is such a wonderful treat on our hike to see Gorman Falls at Colorado Bend State Park last summer. I didn’t realize they are much cuter in the wild 😍 This one is not afraid of us and just stayed, played and hunt while we are watching him. I didn't video the whole time we are there because I want to see and seize that very moment of watching one of my favorite creatures enjoying his life out in the wild.

Now I can't wait to see an anteater, sloth and a koala doing what they love to do in the wild.

Having this kind of experience is one of the many reasons why we love to travel, explore, dream and pursue a Van Life. So far we have seen so many animals in their natural habitat and we can't wait to see more.

Beside food and people. NATURE is one of the biggest factor why we travel. 

How about you? What are your favorite part of traveling? 

Thank you for being here.

Remember Life is SHORT...

#2KidsInApod #VanLife adventure Sequoia National Park See as we gets inside this fallen Sequoia tree

This is one of our favorite experience that we had at Sequoia National Park. Our trip to get to Sequoia National Park was painful coz both kids gets car sick with all the zigzag road we took BUT it all pays off when we get to experience this, met a baby brown bear and get to go inside this fallen Sequoia tree. We had an amazing time and we learned so much about nature and what we can do to take care of this amazing place.

See our other VanLife Adventures.

Thank you for watching. ❤️

Places to go in Texas - Colorado Bend State Park. Enjoy the sound and beauty of Gorman Falls with Us

This video doesn’t do justice on how pretty and breathtaking this place is. You can’t go close to the falls because it is a protected area but you can still enjoy it’s beauty in the distance.

The hike is a little hard with 2 kids but it is worth it. Make sure you pack food and extra water when you do the hike specially in summer. Also this is out of nowhere so I suggest that you buy all the food you will need before heading there. No hotel nearby (I think 30 minutes drive to the closest town) but plenty of area to camp. Best if you reserved first but if you don’t the ranger can give you different areas to camp out from private owners. Planning is a key to make this trip more memorable with the kids.

Beside Big Bend National Park this is our second favorite place to hike in Texas. We highly recommend this place for places to go in Texas 😊

Quote of the Day

"Your children get only one childhood. Make it memorable." 

- Regina Brett

I know I am guilty of not giving my 100% to my kids and as I look at them I feel like I can do more. It is sad that most parents have to work more than they should to make the family survive and miss all the precious moments to be with their family. I know it is not easy, growing up with a single mom working 3 odd jobs every single day - family time is hardly at the table. Having this experienced growing up I want to make sure that I don't do it. I may be busy BUT despite all that, when I am with them I try to BE THERE and not do other stuff. 

One of the reason why I am giving myself 3 years to make this blog and YouTube channel work. Hoping to have my husband retired sooner rather than later so we can spend more time with the kids. I see #VanLife as the answer to that and that is what our goal is. We can't wait to have this dream come true and thank you for being a part of it!

My Half Filipino kid singing a Filipino folk song Bahay Kubo

#Filipino #HalfFilipino #Philippines #BahayKubo #FilipinoSong

Found this video of my son singing his favorite Filipino song Bahay kubo when he was little.

This song is one of my favorite song growing up coz it symbolizes my simple dream of having that simple life surrounded by what I love - Nature!

Can't believe I found it and now I am sharing it so I can have it as a constant reminder of the dream that never left my heart.

Amazing little kid can name all the FERRARI cars in this #FERRARI dealership. manager is impressed

#FERRARI #FERRARIdealership #CarWizard #FERRARIaddict

Found this old video of my then 4 year old son who loves Ferrari cars since he can understand stuff, he knows them by name just by looking at the back. Even the Ferrari store manager was very impressed that he can name them all. Ferrari cars are his favorite and we try to bring him to his happy place whenever we can despite the 1 hour and 30 minutes drive to get there.
