New-tritious pasta recipes to start the year right


Every year, we always wish for the good health of our loved ones. One great way to do this is to try out new recipes that are more nutritious and share them with them.

You can offer nutritious meals to your family without compromising on taste. You can also shop for inexpensive ingredients at your nearby grocery. For more variety, pasta is a quick and easy ingredient to turn into a filling meal. There are endless possibilities with pasta or "pastabilities" that you can whip up daily.

Kick-off 2023 right with masarap, masustansya, and sulit dishes using a good quality ingredient like El Real Pasta. Here are some recipes that the whole family will enjoy:


Bet na bet na Pinakbet Pasta


Pinakbet is a Filipino ulam with pork and vegetables like squash, ampalaya, and tomatoes, which are all good sources of vitamins and minerals. You can change it up and make Pinakbet Pasta with El Real Healthy Pasta. The combination of crispy pork belly, hearty vegetables, and flavorful bagoong will give you a burst of flavor.

Spicy and creamy Healthy Laing Pasta

Go green with Pesto and Parmesan Macaroni


For a nutritious and filling macaroni dish, you can try making Pesto and Parmesan Macaroni. Made from basil, pesto is said to be a good source of vitamins, calcium, and iron, which makes it a great pasta sauce. Give your dish more flavor with some lemon juice and sour cream in the sauce, and top off your El Real Elbow Macaroni with chili flakes and parmesan cheese.

Healthy Sardine Spaghetti for your dose of seafood


Fish like sardines are an excellent source of vitamins B-12 and D, and other nutrients. Sardines can make a great pasta dish when mixed with oil, garlic, and a little lemon juice on top of El Real Healthy Pasta.

Creamy Spinach Pasta for all ages


If you want a dose of iron and vitamins, you can try adding spinach to your meals. A delicious way of incorporating this into a pasta dish is by mixing it with cream and ricotta cheese. You’ll get a nice creamy sauce with hints of spinach with every bite of El Real Healthy Spaghetti or any type of El Real pasta.

5 Best Gifts for Expecting and First-Time Moms According to Solenn Heussaff-Bolzico


Looking for the perfect Christmas gift to give a first-time mom? You may want to consider some of these personal recommendations by celebrity mom Solenn Heussaff-Bolzico!




Awaiting the newest member of the family, Solenn shares how she’s taking everything in stride, which all moms, especially first-time moms can relate to all too well.

"I have always been very open about the fact that motherhood was not a walk in the park for me," she shares. "I think that as a celebrity, it’s very important for me to share these things with everyone so that other moms know that they are not alone in their struggles. Things can get pretty rough, but if I can overcome it, so can you."

She adds, "Nothing will ever really prepare you for motherhood. Nothing. Especially during the first few months after giving birth to Tili, there were days when I would just ask myself, When will it end? When will we get proper sleep again? It’s not a bad thing. We are entitled to feel tired. But of course, as moms, we must let our love for our family always take over. But, again, this doesn’t mean that we cannot ask for or expect help."

But even with all the challenges of raising a toddler, Solenn still prioritizes healthy skin for Tili above anything else as this is the foundation of a healthy childhood. And for Christmas, Solenn shares the gift of healthy skin with her fellow moms through her recommendations.

"I believe that healthy skin should be essential to every baby, that’s why I’m so happy to share with you the products that help me raise Tili into the happy and healthy toddler that she is today!"


Here are Solenn’s top gift picks for Christmas:


Cetaphil Baby Daily Lotion with Organic Calendula


First on Solenn’s list of recommendations is the newest product line from an acclaimed sensitive skincare brand for babies, Cetaphil Baby. The Cetaphil Baby Calendula range is composed of three products, which include the Cetaphil Baby Daily Lotion with Organic Calendula. The Daily Lotion provides baby’s skin with 24-hour hydration to help soothe and calm sensitive skin. Formulated with calendula, sunflower oil, almond oil, and Vitamins B5 & E, the Daily Lotion is clinically proven to prevent baby’s skin from drying out.


Cetaphil Baby Wash & Shampoo with Organic Calendula


Another product under the Calendula line is the Wash & Shampoo, which is specifically designed for head-to-toe use and is hypoallergenic and enriched with Calendula and Aloe for up to 8 hours of long-lasting moisturization. It also helps smoothen, soften, and improve skin texture, perfect for everyday use.


Cetaphil Baby Advanced Protection Cream with Organic Calendula


Finally, there’s the Advanced Protection Cream under the Calendula line, which is used for babies experiencing irritation & rough skin patches on cheeks, knees, elbow areas, or under those chubby folds. "This is especially great now that we’re experiencing colder days, that’s why Tili loves it so much whenever I apply the Advanced Protection Cream before going to bed."


Cetaphil Baby Gentle Cleansing Bar


As Tili grows to be an active toddler, playtime is part of her everyday routine. Before and after playtime, mealtime, or anything in between, she already knows the importance of proper handwashing. The Gentle Cleansing Bar blends into a rich lather that gently cleanses and gives a moisturizing feeling to delicate skin. "We love this because it does not dry out her skin even with frequent washing."


Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wipes


Baby Wipes may be one of the last things that you’ll think about giving someone, but for first-time moms, this is a definite must-have! Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wipes gently cleanses and moisturizes the baby’s delicate skin with its hypoallergenic formulation. It is made from 100% plant-derived fabric and has natural ingredients like Aloe vera and Vitamin E. It also helps prevent the baby’s skin from drying out, making Cetaphil Baby Gentle Wipes ideal for the face and body use of the baby’s delicate skin.

"At the end of the day, Christmas is all about spending time with your loved ones, so any gift you’ll be able to give will be greatly appreciated by the receiver," - Solenn Heussaff-Bolzico
