Add More Crunch and Nutrition to your Fried Dishes with Quaker Rolled Oats

Over the past months, many of us have developed a new hobby we never thought would learn. Thanks for the time being at home, we find time to learn some few trick where we manage to unbox some of our hidden talents at home. If you'd ask me, aside from gardening, I'm a happy baker and home-cook now, whipping up dishes and pastries one after the other.


Among the favorite dishes and pastries that I love cooking are cupcake and Pinoy dishes. If time permits me, I really take time to prepare all the ingredients I need to completely enjoy the meals that I'm preparing. But on those days that I'm a little busy, nothing beats fried dishes so fill my tummy.

I discovered recently that Quaker introduces a variety of sweet and savory recipes that are nutritious and delicious every day with #OnlyQuakerRolledOats!


Quaker Oats, the world’s number 1 oats brand, has been a staple in many homes. Quaker Oats have up to 7x more fiber* for digestion, 1.7x more protein for energy, and beta-glucan to help lower cholesterol - all these combined make eating oats regularly a delicious way to keep our body in good health and strong, especially while we’re staying safe at home.


More than just being our usual breakfast meal, we can now add oats to our favorite home-cooked dishes to make them more nutritious. Quaker Rolled Oats provides many ways you can explore to make more meals beyond breakfast more nutritious. Even Filipino fried classics can get a nutritious upgrade, thanks to Quaker Rolled Oats.
