CHEESE, HAM AND MUSTARD SANDWICHES

June 7, 2017 7 Comments

Hello Everyone,

I hope you’re all fine and having a good start of the week. Another week calls for another recipe post for you to enjoy. When it comes to sandwiches, I love everything about them from being able to create my own and also having fails along the way, but that’s what makes them fun right? Just in case you missed my mandazi recipe, find it here. Today I am going to share with you a sandwich recipe which I usually like making from time to time and is really simple. The best part about them is that these are open-faced sandwiches and don’t take that long to make. This is how to make my cheese, ham and mustard sandwiches.

Hey guys,

I hope you had a fabulous weekend. My weekend was full of spring cleaning, cooking and lots of playing with my son which is practically what happens every other weekend. My son really loves pasta and anything you can throw into pasta he will be up for it. I decided to make mac and cheese because his milk allergy has started going away and I was excited that he can at least start eating some cheese and desserts which he missed out on when he was younger. If you missed my Gousto trial, do find it here. This is my delicious baked mac and cheese recipe and I hope you love it as much as we did.

Hi there

I hope everyone is having a great start of the week, as for my post today it’s all about chicken. Who doesn’t love a good chicken roast? I know I do. When I used to make roasted chicken, it used to have a mind of its own and either overcook or just turn out wrong but after multiple tries, I finally found my way of making the tastiest chicken and the best part is, the oven does all the work for you. This is my tasty roasted chicken recipe.

Ingredients

A whole chicken
2 lemons
Fresh rosemary
Garlic
1 tablespoons of softened butter
Salt
Black pepper

SIMPLE PORK STIR-FRY RECIPE

February 7, 2017 No Comments

Hello Everyone

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and got to plan for your week ahead. As for me, It was yet another trip to the grocery store and finally got to change my menu, which I normally do after two weeks or switch up some meals once they have become too much for my picky little eater. My son loves noodles and I mean really loves them and so every week, it has to be on the menu and it’s the only meal that never changes.

I usually change the meat we eat it with once in a while but so long as it’s noodles, my little boy is happy. My husband is more of the seafood and no sweet sauces type of man, and when I make my son’s meal, I change few things when finalising the meal to make it a bit different. So today was pork stir-fry which really went well and it’s very simple, so if you need to whip up a fast stir-fry meal, then this recipe is for you. Here is my simple pork stir-fry recipe.

MY BEEF PILAU RECIPE

Hello Everyone,

Pilau is what is on my mind today, I love pilau and always brings back great memories. I try to put it on my menu all the time until my family starts asking for something different then I know it’s time to give it a break. Known for being an Indian or Middle Eastern dish, I got to try my first pilau when I was younger and I’m guessing that was the Kenyan version which I learnt to make and still do the same way I saw back then. I used beef instead of chicken in my pilau but it can also be made into a veggie version. For my beef pilau recipe, you will need;
