Chicken Mshikaki
I’m always in search of a challenge when it comes to cooking. A while back I bought wooden skewers just for the sake of having them in my kitchen. I normally use them for checking the readiness of my baked goodies but this time round I decided to put them into good use. I have […]

Buttermilk Pancakes
It’s been a while since I made pancakes. I have been a bit swamped with both school and work so these days we mostly have muesli or brawn sandwiches for breakfast. This is a very simple recipe and other than the buttermilk which is a bit foreign the rest of the ingredients are easy to […]
Chicken Quesadillas
Don’t let the foreign name fool you, these babies are totally easy to make. The best thing is that you can stuff the tortillas with just about anything. Quesadillas are a mexican delight where a tortilla is filled with mostly cheese and other ingredients then folded in half and served. Before I go further, I […]
