My Breakfast Inspiration

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day for me. It is very important to break that overnight fast by fueling your body well and creating that energy your body needs to run throughout the day. No matter how light or small the meal is it is important for your brain function and general well being. I personally do not function well if I haven't had breakfast, it triggers headaches and after a while my body starts to shake. Here are some of the foods I enjoy having in the morning, it keeps me full for longer and helps me avoid unnecessary snacking especially when I have only sweet treats around me. Feed your eyes and try them out. Enjoy!

Banana Orange Cake.

This cake was made with love a product of 2020 lockdown. It's being a crazy year so far but I decided I'll stay positive, strong and productive as we wait to see what will come out of year 2020. I'm so happy to share this delicious orange flavour banana cake here. Let me know if you try this recipe, I'm sure you'll love it just like my family and I did x • In making this recipe you have to make sure everything you need is set and ready to go. • Minimal mixing is required to get a good result. • Try NOT to hip the flour in the measuring cup, scooping in the flour into the cup with a spoon and level out the top. • You can use any other oil you prefer but not flavoured oil as this will take away from the take and flavour of the cake after baking. RECIPE. 2+1/2 cups self raising flour. 1/4 cup cornflour. 1 tsp baking powder. 1 tsp baking soda. 1/4 tsp salt. 1 cup caster sugar. 4 very ripe bananas. 3 eggs. 1/2 cup melted butter + 1/2 cup sunflower oil 1 tsp vani...

I Love Plantain! (Dodo)

My love for Plantain (dodo) is beyond my control, it is one food I can eat anytime of the day and the best part is being able to cook/make it in different ways. Plantain is so versatile that it can be eaten ripe or unripe, fried, boiled or even made into a snack (Plantain Chip/Kpekere) and even as a snack, its still very delicious when flavoured with salt, ginger, pepper or sugar, fried slightly ripe...yum. I'm sharing photos of some of my delicious plantain meals. Boiled Ripe Plantain served with Vegetable Egg Sauce Fried Ripe Plantain served with fried Eggs and sweet Potatoes. Custard, Baked beans and Avocado on the side.
