HELE PROJECT for Second Quarter

One of the subjects that makes homeschooling exciting for me is HELE.  It is all about home economics and livelihood education.  Here, I learn many practical information that will surely benefit me in the future.

Last second quarter, my Mom asked me to prepare 2 recipes.  I had to research their ingredients and nutritional value. During the question and answer,  I had to defend my recipes as nutritious otherwise, it would affect my final grades in this subject.  Then I had to submit a copy of my project.  I decided to use Power point to apply what my Dad taught me about computers.

nI consider this recipe healthy because it uses the breast part of the chicken without the skin.  Instead of using charcoal for grilling, I used the oven . I used olive oil to add flavor and it is healthier than the typical barbeque sauce. 

Chicken is rich in protein and phosphorus.
