Super Bowl Of China Party Trays

 

I am a COOKING MAMA.

Like the game, I slice everything quick and fast.  

We may be a family of 3 but I cook for family of 5 - I deliver my dishes to my in-laws and prepare more dishes for my husband to bring to work the next day.

So I can imagine you thinking - how do I survive?

IT IS HARD.

And I have No-Cook days!  

My No-cook days are usually on Sundays - and the Party Trays for Super Bowl of China is a nice Gift to me that I welcome mid-week!  I was able to enjoy no-cook day and not rush tutoring my son!  - Seriously, GRADE 4 is NO JOKE!

Back to the restaurant.  I remembered dining at Super Bowl of China either SM MOA or Robinsons Manila.  It is a perfect place to dine with my family as both sides of the family loves Chinese food.  And Super Bowl Of China delivers in terms of taste and quality. 

Because of COVID pandemic, our family gatherings in restaurants stopped because I have Senior Parents and my dad suffered from stroke and is bedridden.  So home delivery is an ans

Magnolia Ready-To-Cook Chicken Meals

 

Hi AMW Friends!
Happy Sunday!  My brother had his emergency appendectomy as his appendix burst and it was all crazy!  My brother live with my parents, unmarried and my mom is old to look after him and I can't stay in the hospital overnight as I have my own son to look after for.  

It was CRAZY!  But things were in place for some miraculous reason.  He was able to go through his surgery and was safe (Thank God!).  My dad's Caregiver was the one who stayed in the hospital as the hospital rules changed due to Covid scare.  They do PCR tests and they are not allowed to leave the hospital for the whole duration of stay.  That said, my mom is left to take care of my dad which is IMPOSSIBLE as my dad is bedridden and my mom is around 77 years old!  

My sister and I made a plan to go to my mom's place and scheduled to cook for them and help them feeding my dad and include household chores as well.  

Because I was too hyper cooking various dishes that would last the whole day, I ended up coming back home TIRED and too lazy to cook for my family.  Nakaka-guilty but I am only human!  I can't deal for long hours in the kitchen again after returning home and also ....time constraint! 

Thankfully, there are easy-to-cook dishes available that are really delicious!  I mean I wouldn't feed my own family dishes that tastes like "chemical", if you know what I mean.

I trust Magnolia when I buy chicken so I trust I get fresh, good quality chicken.  Magnolia Chicken Timplados comes in --- Fried Chicken, Oriental Wings, Spicy Wings and Chicken Teriyaki.

So yes, sobrang sarap all the flavors and it doesn't require a lot of prep in the kitchen!  God's answer to a tired and busy mom!

SALO Lechon Belly

 

Second time to eat Salo’s Lechon Belly and it never fail to impress me with the extra crispiness.

You don’t believe me?  I did not believe it myself.  It was delivered at 11am so imagine this to be cooked hours before.  By lunch time, no need to reheat and we ate it as is, very crunchy, tasty and the meat is tender with the right amount of thin layer of fats.

The meat itself is very flavorful because you can see just how much herbs and spieces they use!  They did not scrimp on that.

An order comes with Achara and Garlic suka.  The combination is just perfect!  

Now let’s talk about dinner time, I just reheat everything in an oven and it came out fresh as newly cooked!  And best of all, this shocked me even more!  The next day, I have a few pieces left and I don’t wan tto hassle of turning on the whole oven for a smal piece.  I simply refried it using a non-stick pan with few oil —- it came out perfect!  Even crunchier!  I just don’t know how they prepare this dish but they are doing it right 1000% !

AMW Family experienced Lily's Wonderland

Almost everybody I knew grew up with Lily's Peanut Butter.
In my case, I grew up with Lily's and I still have Lily's with me until my adult years!

I love our neighborhood fresh pandesal and I love it with a good 2-3 layers of Lily's Peanut Butter.

So when me and my family were invited to be part of the Lily's Wonderland, I had to clear up my schedule and be there!

What is Lily's Wonderland?

The company Newborn Food Products Inc. conducted a "Mom and Kids Health Ambassador" contest late 2018 and early 2019.  The kids who came were among the winners per school and won cash, products and a chance to visit the Production Plant of Lily's Peanut Butter.

Empowering The Filipino Farmers as You Eat Healthily

6 years ago, after giving birth to Kyle, I swore to myself I'll do EVERYTHING to breastfeed him.  Not because I am "pressured" by the society to do so but a personal decision.  

Malunggay soup, malunggay soup, malunggay soup and oh!  Malunggay tablets - was all I had back then!  Well, it isn't for the fact that there aren't other choices of malunggay food but I wasn't aware that there are companies out there who, aside from creating products meant for moms, there is a company called Naturearth Corp. who actually created a community to help moms and new moms take care of themselves and share tips in giving their babies the best nutrition there is - breastmilk!  

How about those who aren't breastfeeding anymore?  How to deal with kids who are picky eaters?  Well, the company thought of everything!  They also created healthy snacks not only for moms but delicious enough for kids to want to eat them too!

Let's start with breastfeeding moms or EVERYONE!  

M2 Ready To Drink and M2 Concentrate 

I love ready-to-drink because I can easily put them in fridge and just grab a bottle and drink on my way to sending my son to school.  The concentrate is also great especially since my son LOVES to drink "juice".  He actually wanted to see me do the "mixing" in front of him and even suggested to add more ice!  I love that this drink has all the key ingredients to keep me and my family healthy!  It is also the most covenient way for my son to take his daily vegetable requirement!

For the concentrate, the best way to do is just add 4 tablespoon of M2 in a glass of ice water and enjoy!  You may even add in kalamansi for that extra punch!

• M2 Ready to Drink (Php55.00) 
• M2 Concentrate 300ml (Php110.00)
• M2 Concentrate 1L (Php270.00)

Then for snacks!  Naturearth also has wide range of products that is not only healthy but SUPER delicious.  Ever since I go back to the gym, I take more conscious effort to snack healthily as well so these came in right on time!

• Mix Camote Chips 
• Malunggay Shing-A-Ling 75grams (Php40.00) 
• Moringa Otap

Krispy Kreme Red Velvet Cheesecake and Matcha Doughnuts

Every after study time or activity time, Kyle would exclaim: "Reward please, snack please!".
I guess he got that in me, food as language of Love.  So in my household, I can feed a family of 3!  I have stocks of various snacks because - we may never know when the call arises!

I LOVE Krispy Kreme doughnuts, the Original Glazed is still the perfect doughnut for me no matter how many brands have been popping up everywhere!  So when I got these colorful Red and Green doughnuts for the year 2019, I let me calorie-counting slide and tasted them all!  With Kyle of course and Mr. AMW!

Red Velvet Cheesecake Doughnut

Matcha Doughnuts in Classic, Pistachio and Macadamia

I don't have a sweet tooth so I find the Red Velvet Cheesecake to be too sweet for my liking, but Kyle loved it a lot.  As for me, I may not be a fan of anything Matcha but this one surprised me the most!  With the right combination of sweet and bitter taste, I am actually craving for one right now as of typing!  I can't pick a favorite as I love all 3 variants!
