Herr’s Baked Cheese Curls and Cheez Fries

This is a photo of my grocery cart in KMart in Guam! ( Shopping in Guam July 30, 2009 )  This is a true story from last year! I finished everything on the shelf!  I came back two or three times, so this was the last hurrah cart :-)  I have been looking all over the world for these because this is one of my favorite cheese snacks.  I brought these all home and gave some away and the rest I kept in the closet as these were valuable stocks!

See how cheesy they are!!!

The secret to make it even more cheesy is to open the package, fold the top and seal it with a bag clip- keep it like that for maybe a day and eat it the next day- hmmm…. MORE YUMMY AND MORE CHEESY!!  I thought I was the only one who noticed it, but even my sister and my husband noticed it when they would get from my stash!

I contacted them because I wanted to bring them here to our country so that more people can enjoy this delicious CHEESE CURLS!!! So, now they are in the Philippines already!!!!

And I discovered this too!! SNACK FRIEZ.  Also very cheesy and so YUMMY!!! It comes in sticks like french fries

Chorizo Hubad

Thanks to Tito Tony and Tita Odette for this yummy chorizo!!!! This is one of my favorite.  I always like my chorizo skinless or  ”hubad” :-)

It comes in this container and it is frozen and does not have skin anymore.  Then you just fry when you want to eat it, I like mine golden brown and crispy :-) YUM YUM!

Baker’s Dozen Valentine 2010

I was a bit early for the movie, so I went to see what was happening on the food floor and oh my gosh!!  The Baker’s Dozen!  Heart2Heart loves the Baker’s Dozen especially during Valentine’s Day!! ( Baker’s Dozen Celebrates Valentine’s Day February 11, 2009 )  Love the display and all the packaging, heart shaped cakes and pastries!

Sorry about the photos, was rushing since I had little time before the movie

Beef Pepper Rice by Heart2Heart

Javier celebrated his birthday last week and he wanted to invite his cousins ( since their parents were out of town ) and his Ninong Quito over

p1150806.JPGp1150807.jpgp1150808.jpg

  We decided to serve our newly discovered homemade Beef Pepper Rice.  My three boys love Pepper Lunch, so in search of dishes I have to think of that they will like, I decided to try and make Beef Pepper Rice at home! We all know it will never be the same…. but for something homemade, they liked it!! Whew! What a relief!  

So this is dedicated to my friends, Jeroen and Cecile who own Pepper Lunch! And of course we will still go to Pepper Lunch to have the real thing!

p1150813.JPGp1150816.JPGp1150817.JPG

Javier was looking for his cake… I was not prepared! as we were really supposed to have his celebration on Sunday, so he got his own candle :-)

p1150812.jpg

and he thought of it himself to make his own cake with Golden Spoon yogurt - Cake batter and just chocolate!

p1150823.JPGp1150824.jpgp1150827.JPG

Everyone of course wanted Golden Spoon also, so that was for dessert :-) It’s a good thing we always have stock in our freezer!

p1150831.JPG

This is how we made our version of Beef Pepper Rice:

I showed my cook, Edna, the photo of Beef Pepper Rice from the mousepad Cecile gave me during the launch of Pepper Lunch Shangri-la :-)  ( Pepper Lunch Launch Feb 4, 2009 )

 p1150895.JPG

I told her to just copy how it looked

  I had her get all my hardly used sizzling plates which came in different designs :-)

p1150797.JPGp1150800.JPGp1150801.JPG

Then I had to buy 5 more to accomodate the guests who were coming over

p1150774.JPG

For the beef, I just used Australian Shabu Shabu beef - sliced like Shabu Shabu so it is thin. You can also use sukiyaki beef.  

But next time, I will try Wagyu or a better kind of beef so the kids will be happier :-)

I bought fresh Japanese corn 

 p1150803.JPG

and we bought Japanese Yakiniku sauces - There was spicy, sweet and then regular - James said that it is best when mixed all together - so that is what we will do next time rather than having all three bottles then adding them one by one.  I bought them at Shopwise 

p1150953.JPGp1150952.JPG

 I brought out my salts, pepper and Bragg’s ( in place of Knorr or Maggi )- this is for those who still want to add taste

p1150820.JPG

 and imported Japanese rice

Heart2Heart’s pizza pita sandwich?

Heart2Heart invented this sandwich….you should try it!  Very easy to make! One of the key ingredients is Village Gourmet’s pizza crust (  onion, parmesan, garlic and mozzarella cheese ) which you have to use like a pita pocket.  Slice the pizza crust into 2 and the you have to slit the middle of the crust so it becomes a pita pocket.  Heart2Heart found another way to use the pizza crust :-)

 The filling is a mixture of the following:

Bacolod chicken strips

( chicken, calamansi, garlic, sliced ginger then chopped thinly- mix all together to marinate the chicken, then grill )

feta cheese crumbles

pesto 

shredded lettuce 

chopped tomato 

 dsc_0001.JPG

Then stuff it inside the pita bread

Milky Way Halo Halo

I do not really eat halo halo, if ever I end up just putting pinipig, jello, milk, ube ice cream and then the ice.  But eversince I tried the halo halo in Milky Way during the baptism of Ramon  ( Ramon’s Christening January 3, 2009 ) , I have been craving for the halo halo and the ginumis!!!!! YUM YUM!!!

In the party, they served the halo halo and ginumis in small glasses 

dsc_4618jpg.jpeg

 So last week after dinner, I insisted on going to Milky Way for dessert!! 

p1150312.jpg

It was nice to see Malou there :-) even if she was busy with a wedding reception next door

p1150294.jpgp1150295.jpg

And I got excited when I saw this on the wall :-) 

p1150322.jpg

 Here it is!!! YUMMY!! I know everyone has been talking about this halo halo for years but only now I believed them and this is the only halo halo I eat!  :-) I wonder if I can ask for extra ube ice cream? or extra ice?  :-)

p1150298.JPGp1150303.jpgp1150310.JPG

 Then we ordered ginumis also!  Of course!!  I wonder if I can order half ginumis half halo halo?  and maybe we can call it GINUHALO!  :-)  Heart2Heart likes them both!  The coconut ice cream in the ginumis is so yummy!! I think it is the same one they use in Azuthai. YUM YUM!

p1150305.jpgp1150307.JPGp1150313.JPG

My mom always tells me that one of the secrets to good halo halo is the ice and true enough they have shaved ice  

p1150319.jpg

And thanks to Malou and Jay for this yummy Dark Chocolate truffle cake which came from the floor below Milky Way, at Cirkulo.  Now my son, Jaime, is craving for this one! 

p1150324.JPG

A few days after, we went to watch a movie at Rockwell Power Plant Mallp1150448.JPGmilkywayrockwellhalohalo.jpg

and I took advantage to get another GINUHALO but they did not have Ginumis, only Halo halo   

 p1150451.jpg

and we were happy to see our friends, Jonathan and Stella, who were also craving for their favorite Halo Halo :-)

Japanese Fresh Strawberries

Heart2Heart loves strawberries!!! The Japanese make them so perfectly - they are so clean and shaped perfectly that sometimes you wonder if they are really fresh :-)  Mom insists that there is a big difference in taste as the price goes higher :-) unlike buying the musk melon. Hmmm….
