Beef Caldereta Recipe, Made Easy by Mama Sita’s Caldereta Mix

January 11, 2017 by Sheila | A B & Me Leave a Comment

I used to be intimidated by Caldereta. It seemed so complicated. I’ll tell you why. In the olden days… Growing up, we would always have these family parties and gatherings at home.

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)
