Have you tried this bread or it is only here in my place? This is one of my favorite bread. It is a loaf bread with ripples of red monggo beans. It's yummy and sweet. The monggo beans are cooked and mashed and sugar is added to make it sweet. I buy this one once a week from a church member that sells baked goods or breads. I will never get tired eating this bread. It cost about 60 pesos or more than 1 dollar

Never heard of this but it looks like cinnamon and raisin bread we have.

Seldom eaten this lately but I like them when I was young. My mom used to buy this at one of the bakeries that make them and I like them a lot. But now I do not see that often in my place.

Never seen like it. I don't know. Maybe if I look closely or taste it maybe I know.

I remember when I was pregnant my OB asked if I eat monggo. I said I don't but I eat monggo bread and she laughed and told my sister about that who happened to be her student at that time. Not my favorite but I like eating it when there's one at home.

That looks a really nice bread. We have something that looks the same but I think it might have chocolate in it rather than monggo beans.

Yes it looks like chocolate but it is red monggo beans.

Wow! that looks really delicious. As I see in the picture, it has a nice texture. I also love mongo bread but I rarely buy it because the ones sold in the supermarket are not good.

I tried those in supermarkets and I think I'm not satisfied enough with the monggo filling
