BLACKBEAN VEGETARIAN BURGERS

December 5, 2018 36 Comments

Hello Everyone,

Happy new month everybody, December is here and I am yet to find where my tree is and when to start all the decorating. Meanwhile, my son has decided to stop eating meat and be a vegetarian, so what does that call for? More recipes and cooking involved which is all good since I do love trying out recipes. This past weekend I decided to make some blackbean vegetarian burgers for him to try out and it was a success. He claims not to like beans but he didn’t even notice that he was having them. If you missed my juicy oven baked turkey burgers post and video do check it out here, and do subscribe to my channel. Here is the recipe for them.

EASY VEGETABLE FRIED RICE

October 4, 2018 38 Comments

Hi There,

As a busy mum, I try to figure out what is the quickest and fastest meal I can be able to prepare and still make time for my almost 6 month old and 5 year old. Now, I don’t really make fast meals everyday but there are days when I literally can’t think of anything else to cook without it having too many steps. So when that time comes, my easy vegetable fried rice hits the spot and is ready in minutes compared to my beef pilau recipe or the salmon fish cakes. Also my son really loves it and always eats it with a side of oven baked salmon which will come next on the blog later on. Today, we will be focusing on the fried rice part. So, you will need:
