Whoever started the thing that you have to say CHEESE when you are being photographed must be a real cheese lover! Because saying cheese does not just fake a smile, it can really put a smile to anyone’s face! Cheese is life mga momsh kaya naman I’m sharing with you my favorite Cheesy Microwave Meals Recipes.

Let’s talk about cheese first. What is your most favorite cheese? I’d go for Mozzarella any given day. It’s a must in our grocery list, we can’t have a month without mozarella. And all along, I though it was the only cheese that we need until I discovered Jalapeño Jack cheese.

It’s the perfect cheese for us because we love anything spicy! What’s the best Jalapeño Jack cheese brand? Always look for the Real California Cheese or Milk seal. That’s my guide ever since because with that seal, I know that that the cheese product is certified having been made with 100% Real California Milk from Real California Dairy families.

Why California? California leads the U.S. as a  producer of milk, ice cream, butter, nonfat dry milk and whey protein concentrate and is the second largest producer of cheese and yogurt.

Chili Con Chicken Carne

What I love most about the chicken mixture I did for the Chicken Quesadilla is I can use it to create a rice meal. Though my video suggested other wise haha I use the same mixture for my Chili Con Chicken Carne. Add corn lang and rice and of course cheese! Microwave for 1 minute and ready to eat!

So you can actually prepare a big batch of the chicken mixture and put the mixture on your fridge and use it whenever the kids asked for meryenda.

Just make sure that when you buy cheese to use for Cheesy Microwave Meals Recipes, look for the Real California Cheese Seal  or Real California Milk Seal to ensure that the cheese you’re enjoying is real food made by real families.
