I do and I actually have three! First is my Mom, for me, she makes the best fried rice in the world. So good that I would crave for it regularly when I was living in the Lion City. She also makes really good ma-wan (pork meat balls) that I would ask her to pack me some whenever I visit Manila and yes, I'd bring a container filled with fried meatballs with me every single time. Of course, that also includes her bringing over more meatballs for us to enjoy whenever she and Papa would go and visit me in Singapore. Second, my Kongkong. I guess I've shared how much of a foodie he is that I totally credit my food-loving personality and spirit to him. He is the Masterchef of the family and boy, does he make the best Amoy Fresh Lumpia and Kiam Peng (among many others). I remember how we would always host parties in his house as everyone in his side of the family would always request for him to cook. He's 93 yrs old now and has long retired from the kitchen but to this day, he would take him out and he would unbashfully express his thoughts on every single restaurant that we would visit. Lastly, I also have Paul's Manang. His doting nanny of 35 years. She can cook so well and she would always make sure that we have food to bring home whenever we visit my in laws which is more than twice a week. There are times when Paul and I are just so tired of preparing food for the twins that we would call her and ask if she has food that we can get. My twins love Manang's cooking that only with her food, L would gladly eat rice. Other than that, she would forever be on a no-rice diet.
Now, this-is-why-I-am-Fat. Haha!

We started with the cheese and charcuterie board which has Auntie Arnie's Dips and Spreads. I love how she has different flavored butter, my favorite is the Chorizo Butter. I love the pesto sauce too which I can't wait to bring home and try on my next pasta dish.

Now, let me talk about the dishes.




Time is indeed Gold and for someone who feels like 24h is never enough for me to complete all my task, I'm thankful to have stocks of Auntie Arnie's in my freezer. It's reasonably priced too, imagine preparing a meal with 3 dishes for your family of 4 while spending less than Php. 1,000. The best part is, preparing all these will take you less than 30 minutes! This reminds me so much of my favorite show -- 30 minute meals with Rachael Ray. Now it's Easy Cooking under 30 with Auntie Arnie's!
One last thing, all of Auntie Arnie's heirloom dishes can last for 6 months in your freezer and yet it's preservatives-free. This is also why I am brave enough to make my twins try it since I know that it's made of the best ingredients which is safe for the entire family.
Auntie Arnie's is at the launch stage so expect more products to come out in the coming months. For now, check out her product line-up at La Contessa Deli (81 Xavier Residences, San Juan City) or through Honestbee! Check out the current menu line-up available
