Having pork in our meals for 2 consecutive days made me feel bloated. So I suggested having Chopsuey for our last night’s dinner. But as usual, my husband cannot bear eating plain vegetables, so he recommend to put chicken liver, quail eggs and small amount of bihon noodles in it. OK, so my chopsuey will turn-out to be Pancit bihon? Chicken liver and quail eggs are fine, since it blends well with the vegetables for chosuey, but bihon, it will make my original dish to another kind…. He even defended that it will still be chopsuey since there will be more vegetables than the bihon…. Yeah right!
So, we ended-up having Pancit Chopsuey, side-dished with fried tofu. Yes, I cooked 2-in-1 dish. So if you prefer chopsuey, just remove the bihon in the ingredients, or if you prefer pancit bihon, you can add some more bihon noodles in my recipe. =D
