BEANS HAS BEEN SAVING LIVES AND MAKING PEOPLE RICH SINCE 1854. IF YOU THINK WE ARE LYING READ THE STORY...IT'S FEATURED IN WIKIPEDIA NO LIES

Before I forget we sell a mudu of honey beans for #650

Oya sorry, the story

Jack, a poor country boy, trades the family cow for a handful of magic beans, which grow into an enormous beanstalk reaching up into the clouds. Jack climbs the beanstalk and finds himself in the castle of an unfriendly giant. The giant senses Jack's presence and cries,

Fee-fi-fo-fum!
I smell the blood of an English man.
Be he alive, or be he dead,
I'll grind his bones to make my bread.[8]

Outwitting the giant, Jack is able to retrieve many goods once stolen from his family, including a bag of gold, an enchanted goose that lays golden eggs and a magic golden harp that plays and sings by itself. Jack then escapes by chopping down the beanstalk. The giant, who is pursuing him, falls to his death, and Jack and his family prosper.

HOW DOES EATING WHEAT IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH?
WE ARE GLAD YOU ASKED

Wheat is a good source of fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals. Eating both refined and unrefined whole wheat is not bad for health but whole wheat is healthier because all the nutrients are intact. Gluten-containing foods like wheat, rye, and barley are essential for good health

How does wheat help your body?

Whole grains are packed with nutrients including protein, fiber, B vitamins, antioxidants, and trace minerals (iron, zinc, copper, and magnesium). A diet rich in whole grains has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and some forms of cancer

Is eating too much wheat bad?

Consuming too much wheat can cause the intestines to work harder resulting in sluggish digestion causing digestive problems, such as water retention, bloating, and gas. Wheat is not bad for most people. Wheat is a good source of fiber, essential vitamins, and minerals.

HOW TO MAKE PAP/AKAMU/OGI FROM MILLET

Millet is a whole grain that's packed with protein, antioxidants, and nutrients. It may have numerous health benefits, such as helping lower your blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Plus, it's gluten-free, making it an excellent choice for people who have celiac disease or follow a gluten-free diet. It is alkaline and easily digestible for infants and toddlers. So you see it's a good addition for you and your child's diet.

SIMPLE STEPS TO MAKE PAP FROM IT
1. Soak it for at least six hours until its soft.

2. Wash thoroughly and blend.

3. Add water to the paste and filter through a very thin sieve so you have only liquid passing through.

4. After sieving, keep it for about six hours so the concentrate can suspend and the water rise.

5. Gently pour out the water and you can refrigerate.

BENNISEED OR SESAME SEED.
ME I KNOW IT AS RIDI (HAUSA). THIS IS A JACK OF ALL TRADE FOOD

It can be used to cook soup, eaten fried, caked, eaten with groundnut or garnished and seasoned in meat or beans. See!!! Super food!!!

Anyways I'll share a personal recipe on how my mom garnishes it in meat. It's a delicacy my family always looks forward to. I'll also post a picture of what it looks like on my story. Some persons said it looks like burnt offering 😂😂😂 but we who relish it, know it isnt.

It's usually the black benniseed (because there is the white one which people use for soup) she uses.
1. Wash the benniseed for stones and air it

2. Once dry, pour in a dry pan and stir fry until it starts making popping sounds

3. Pour in a mortar and pound. While pounding, add maggi and salt to taste.

4. Fry pepper and onion sauce and spice well.

5. Mix pepper and onion sauce with already fried meat, and add benniseed (rido) with a little stock and mix.

My brethren you are in for a treat. Thank me later

MY MOM MAKES SOME MEAN KUNU FROM THIS WHOLE GRAIN...A TATSE AND YOU'LL BE BACK FOR MORE
ANOTHER SET OF WHOLE GRAIN FOR YOUR PLEASURE.

First and foremost ive been reading about sorghum for years, I didnt know its Guinea corn😪😪😪.
Anyways, this is another grain you want to add to your menu

Corn has several health benefits. Because of the high fiber content, it can aid with digestion. It also contains valuable B vitamins, which are important to your overall health. Corn also provides our bodies with essential minerals such as zinc, magnesium, copper, iron and manganese.

You can eat corn if you have diabetes. Corn is a source of energy, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. It's also low in sodium and fat.
BUT
Corn can spike your blood sugar and may contribute to weight gain when consumed in excess. Individuals who have diabetes or are trying to lose weight may want to limit their intake.

LET'S FEED YOU RIGHT😉

EVER SEEN A FOOD THAT IS GENDER-BASED😥. FABULOUS FOR WOMEN, SCARY FOR MEN... (I THINK IT'S ABOUT DISCRETION THOUGH)

Soybeans are high in protein and a decent source of both carbs and fat. They are a rich source of various vitamins, minerals, and beneficial plant compounds, such as isoflavones. For this reason, regular soybean intake may alleviate the symptoms of menopause and reduce your risk of prostate and breast cancer

However...

there have been some concerns that soy might lower a man's testosterone levels. This is because the active ingredients in soy – isoflavones – are phytoestrogens – plant-based compounds that behave much like estrogens

So you might want to apply caution to your intake

WHAT DREAMING ABOUT SPRING ONION MEANS...

Spring onion is a close relative to onions, shallot, garlic and leek (remember leek? We spoke about her yesterday).
Anyways, some people believe dreaming about spring onions and other onions hold meaning. Some beliefs include:

Dreaming of green onions is an embarrassing sign that you may be pierced secretly.

Dreaming of eating green onions indicates that everything is going well for you.

Pregnant women dream of eating onions, indicating that the children born will be very smart.

The businessman dreamed of selling green onions, indicating that the business was booming.

In the dream, we use scallions to make dishes, reminding you to pay attention to the health of your family, and some people may fall ill.

Dreaming of eating shallots means that you are in a happy mood and everything goes well.

Dreaming of selling onions is a sign of strong business.

Well..... I'm not a cynic but I dont believe any of the above. Just thought to share with y'all.

It's a very nice additive to your cooking. Shop for as low as #100 from Abuja Village Market

HOW ARE YOU TAKING CARE OF YOUR BODY...?🌰🍅🌶🍆

YOU CAN ADD BELL PEPPER TO YOUR SMOOTHIE...E SHOCK YOU ABI 😁😏

Recently I was with a friend and she is a diehard fan of bell pepper. Besides fried rice I dont cook with bell pepper. So o asked her how she eats her bell pepper. And she gave me the following recipe:

Stir Fries
Sweet Peppers are a must-have ingredient in any stir fry – not only are they super sweet when sautéed, but they also add some incredible color to the dish! They’re also simple to prepare – just slice up your Peppers and cook in a hot pan using some olive oil until they reach the desired tenderness.
Voila.

Other ways to eat Bell pepper include:
Stuffed
Grilled
Baked
Roasted
Soup
Pickled

STOP COOKING BORING MEALS😒...SPICE YOUR STEWS AND SOUPS WITH SOME LEEK😉

Leeks are related to garlic and onions. Tasting them, you can tell. They have a sweet, oniony flavor that adds depth to soups, stews, pastas, and more!

You can use them as you do onions and garlics, to build flavor at the start of a recipe.
Grilled or roasted, they make a surprising, delicious side dish. Heads up – if you choose to serve them this way, look for really fresh, peak-season leeks. They’re at their best in the fall and spring.
