the joys and woes of placing a meal on the table
Losing weight/ healthier eating is the most common new year’s resolution for 2017. That said, I normally purpose to share healthy recipes on here with the occasional indulgent dish. This carrot and ginger juice is perfect for those trying to incorporate juices into their diet but are still scared to venture into the green juices. […]
Happy New Year! Feels good to be back to blogging, 2015 was pretty slow here but this year is gonna be awesome. In late November last year, my daughter turned 6 months and finally I could start introducing other foods. I had purposed to exclusively breast feed her for 6 months. It wasn’t easy especially […]
As I had earlier mentioned, I’ll be sharing simple recipes using organic produce from Organic foods. This is a simple heart warming recipe that will not only fill your kitchen with a lovely aroma but will also leave you yearning for more. Cream of carrot soup.
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 […]

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 […]

Ingredients: Spaghetti For the sauce 1 medium onion chopped 3 cloves of garlic finely chopped 1 teaspoon of chopped ginger 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder 3 tomatoes diced 1/8 teaspoon black pepper Salt to taste 5 beef sausages sliced into […]
I normally avoid cooking kienyeji (road runner) chicken for fear of under cooking it and of course the fact that it can be a bit tough. On one of my visits at my neighbours place (read the Murigis), I found some Tupike magazines which I gladly skimmed through and voila I landed on this recipe. […]
I bought some gram flour a while back so that I could prepare some bhajias. Since then, I haven’t cooked bhajias again and I feared my flour would go to waste. I started brainstorming on other ways I could use the flour. Since, I love making fish fingers and I always coat them with flour, […]
