Weekend Engagement Topic 176: Weekends Are For More Food.

in #hive-168869last year

Most people always get excited about weekends and they always look forward to it because some use it for spending more time with family, visit friends and relatives, go for picnics and other exciting adventures, some take out time to rest.

Some use weekends to go shopping, attend to house chores and then cook enough food that will last for the new week. I belong to this group.

I enjoy cooking and since weekdays are usually busy for me due to work and other engagements which may not allow me to cook some kinds of food, I use the weekends to try my hands on them.

My fridays are usually for shopping and this gives me chance to take care of the cooking on Saturdays, sometimes Sundays depending on what I would be preparing.

Asides from preparing soups, stew that can last for the new week, I always have something special to prepare.

Bitterleaf soup and Vegetable soup

I have been craving moi moi and akara for a while now so I added them to the list of foods to prepare this weekend.

Akara also simply known as beans roll is made from beans.

Akara


Moi Moi with gsrri
Moi moi simply called bean pudding is made from beans.

Both meals are nutritious and can be eaten with pap, custard or garri. Some combine bread and akara too., It all depends on one's preference.

It is also on weekends that I make chin chin for people who placed orders and for personal use too.

My weekend will be incomplete without me making yogurt and zobo drinks too.

Most people prepare rice on Sundays but I really do not. Instead I eat other foods like beans, plantain porridge, moi moi, pancake and more of fruits. I can take fruits for the whole day. The reason rice is out of my menu for weekends is because almost everyday of the week I eat rice as lunch so once it's weekend, I cut it off from my menu.


Jellof beans with garri


Fruit


Pancake with chocolate beverage

I love home made foods that's why I prefer preparing what I eat. I rarely go to eateries so I make sure to prepare what will last me for the week, my lunch pack inclusive. By doing this not only do I eat healthy, it saves me from more expenses.

This is how my weekend food preparation usually goes.
I hope you enjoyed reading, your feedback will be highly appreciated. Gracias.

Just like the saying, variety is the spice of life so I love trying my hands on new dishes, some I'm perfect at, others I'm still learning

Being one who easily get stomach upset from some foods, I learnt to be very careful with what I eat that's the most reason I cook my meals. Eating healthy is always my top priority any time, any day.

I appreciate your beautiful feedback.

Saturdays are always time to explore a lot of things and food for many people especially when the weekdays are always busy. I love homemade food too and they cost less than eating out. Besides that, it is healthy for the body.

You are absolutely right. Weekends comes with so many activities.

Most of the food we eat out aren't so healthy, one needs to be careful.
I appreciate your feedback

Exactly. We have to be careful with food from outside.

You are highly Welcome

All your meals look delicious 🤩

I love the zobo! Here in Venezuela it is known as Jamaica. It is super refreshing and tasty. We drink it cold or in tea. We also eat a lot of beans.

I like to prepare my food at home, although I enjoy it when I can eat out 💟

Wow, what a name for zobo 😅. Do you have an idea why it's called Jamaica?

I appreciate your bribg here. 🤗

I really have no idea. Even in the supermarket they sell it in boxes of tea bags and that is the commercial name: Jamaica flowers. Here where I live some people grow them.

Alright, the name sounds e, though. Thank you 🤗

These delicacies are top notch and they look delicious. Keep it up

Yes, they were indeed, thank you
