Mac & Cheez and Baked Mac from Lucky Me

By | Cheese, Yummy! | One Comment

Driving down Edsa, this billboard caught the attention of Heart2Heart! p1120744.JPG

Finally a local version of one of our family favorites, Kraft Macaroni and Cheese.

So I immediately went to the supermarket to get some to try!!  It is not like the imported ones but it is okay and what is important is that there is no MSG.

H2H’s Cheeseballs Bread

By | Cheese, Recipes | 2 Comments

Heart2Heart loves cheese! To the point where sometimes I invent my own recipes.  Sharing with you this recipe.  I consider this a gourmet recipe because it is a SERIOUS recipe!  miniheartsmilingimages3.jpg

I have shared this with three of my girl friends over merienda at home and they all liked it.  So I hope you will like it too!

Ingredients:

CHEESEBALLS!  Choose your favorite cheeseballs brand. Use a mortar and pestle to crush the cheeseballs

Garlic bread – I just buy the frozen ones in the supermarket because they are pre cut and prepared already and they are very good.  Even if they are pre cut already, I still slice the bread into two so it becomes really thin.  I do that also because I do not want to eat too much bread and at the same time, I get to taste more of the cheeseballs on top.  I choose any of these two:p1070705.JPGp1070731.JPG

Since I slice the bread into two, one of them will not have the garlic spread right,  So I spread Holly’s FRESH  butter on it

Put the crushed cheeseballs on top of the bread and toast till the bread is lightly browned and cooked

My sons love it too especially Javier and he even has his own version.  When we were in the States, he actually made cheeseballs bread and he invented his own version by melting Cracker barrel cheese on top!

WOW!! It was actually good! He is definitely Heart2Heart’s son! 🙂

Malagos Farmhouse Products from Davao

By | Cheese, Christmas | 9 Comments

A few weeks ago, Rachelle served a cheese platter which was really really delicious.  

Previous entry:  By Rachelle Wenger  November 30, 2008

I was very surprised to find out that it was locally made in a Davao farm. I normally only hear of local cheeses such as quesong puti or mozzarella being made here in our country but  something similar to blue cheese and camembert? WOW!! So i asked Rachelle to share her source with me.  Hopefully one day I can visit the farm and see where and how it is actually made.

Heart2Heart loves cheese!  especially if it is proudly Filipino made!  🙂 

Rachelle served us Chevre, Blue Peppato and Feta ( from left to right )

 This is Olive Puentespina, the cheesemaker,  with one of her goats.
