This is comprised of a mixture of maize and beans boiled then one can season it with salt, fry it with either meat, potatoes,cabbages,carrots or pumpkin. It's so delicious that's what I prepared for the weekend ! I know it's gonna push us and we can eat it during breakfast and lunch!

My gosh, that looks good.
It reminds me of a stew I make here. I just add everything to it.
I'll even use the stew as a topping on rice.

A stew like that is a comfort food for me. I have some in the freezer now.

That does look delicious!
When we make something special, we make it a bit extra to be enough for two meals

Yes and that saves much on time and energy for preparing food as sometimes on weekends we tend to be relaxed and avoid much work

@Laurakemunto Yesterday we had a small get together for dinner. And now I have enough to go for a day and that saves me from cooking today.My Sunday is a perfect lazy Sunday

@S4mmyboy it depends with personal preference others make it spicy while some just boil and add salt and eat it that way
