Contadina Tuyo Pasta in Pesto Cream Sauce

     I have a confession to make, I don't know how to cook dishes. All I know is make breakfast by frying egg and other fried stuff that's why I'm glad that recipes can now be seen online and it makes cooking a lot easier. Aside from this, making flavorful dishes comes easy now with the help of ready made sauces and ingredients. 

     I recently discovered Contadina while watching AFC (Asian Food Channel) thru Nigella Lawson's Contadina commercial and last week, Contadina Philippines sent me a holiday basket containing their products. Looks like the angels planned this and thought it's time for me to level up my kitchen adventure. It's my first time to make a dish and it's a bit challenging because I'll be preparing a holiday dish for my family. But it will be an easy task for me with the help of Contadina products as they offer ready to cook pasta sauces made from natural ingredients. Sharing the recipe below plus a holiday package giveaway from Contadina Philippines!

     The most wonderful time of the year is Christmas. It's the time where we spend our precious time going to parties, family gatherings, and reunions. It's one of the busiest season and with that the word rush sets in mind. Christmas shopping season rushes in, and the scenarios that we see are still the same- crowded malls, supermarkets, full parking slots, long queue at cashiers BUT it makes us smile to see discounts, promotions, and deals all for the sake of Christmas!

Jing Monis' Holidays with the Press 2016

     Christmas parties and reunions are happening here, there, and almost everywhere. Are you ready to show off your holiday look? For girls, prepping for parties can be stressful because it's not only what to wear that we are thinking because we also want to look good from head to toe.

     Speaking of head to toe, holidays is also the time where it's okay to have your hair colored and styled according to what you've been dreaming off. If you want to have a new hair color- mermaid hair, ombre, purple, red, etc, then give yourself a treat! But for this, you need to go to a reputable salon for that #hairgoals peg. I've been dreaming of ash brown hair for the longest time and by the first week of December, I've finally achieved that hair color with Hair Philosophie by Jing Monis Salon. A short story of my first Jing Monis' Holidays with the Press 2016 experience below :)
