I received this from my Assumption batch mate and sweet friend, Jill.  She always feeds and  takes care of all of use and makes sure we don’t get hungry that’s why we all love her

We tried the famous Mac and Cheese

Made with real cheese!!  I suggest you wait for it to cool down a bit rather than eat it straight from the chafing dish when it’s really hot.  Let it cool down so the cheese is not too watery

There is a seating area where you can watch them make some cheese while you eat the yummy mac and cheese 🙂

Curds!! James doesn’t like cheese as much as I do, but he seemed to be going back and forth for tasting

For Heart2Heart, it’s always best to patronize our local producers/products.

For now, they are available only at the Mercato Centrale market at Bonifacio Global City

Best Spinach and Artichoke Dip

By | Cheese, Recipes | 3 Comments

Heart2Heart gets a kick out of trying to copy dishes tasted elsewhere and trying to make them at home!  I made an artichoke dip before and I remember putting mayonnaise in it.  But recently, I tried an artichoke dip where the chef said she did not use mayonnaise and instead used more of cheese.  So I researched online and looked for a recipe I could copy and try.  And I found this!!  It uses sour cream and cream cheese and not mayo!!! and it was good!!!

I don’t do the recipes myself but I tell my cook what to do!  She is very good in reading recipes so I am lucky.  So when I found this recipe, I told her to make it – we did not have monterey jack cheese and red pepper flakes ( i don’t put this anymore )  but she was still able to make it and it was really good.  Since we did not have Moneterey Jack cheese for the top, my cook used Cougar cheese (Previous Entry:   Cougar Gold Cheese May 11, 2010 ) since it was what we had at the time, and it was perfect!!  I always substitute ingredients and change them with what we have and what we like.  So the top can be any cheese that you like! 🙂  This is dedicated also to my Assumption Velada committee, here it is finally the recipe I promised!

Then of course you can choose anything to go with the dip, crostini, crackers, potato chips

Last Saturday, Tita Rose served Holly’s quesong puti like the Italian dish, Tomato Caprese.   But instead of using Mozzarella cheese, she used our very own Filipino quesong puti!!  YUMMY!!!!!

It looked really so fresh and so good.  Use the giant fresh tomatoes which you can get at Rustan’s Supermarket, slice them and then slice the cheese and pour extra virgin olive oil and freshly grinded pepper and then top it with basil

Then Tita Rose put it in a plate for me and she put her homemade pesto!!!!  EVEN MORE YUMMY!!
