Food And Life With Vuyi

MEAT-FREE DINNER INSPO
Greens •Quinoa •Chickpeas •Roast Butternut, Peppers & Onions •Avocado

I know there are some really struggling with putting together wholesome meat-free meals during this time of fasting or ‘detox’. Use sweetpotato or carrot instead of butternut. Add mushrooms or broccoli. Play around. But make it filling and delicious!

Dressing: olive oil, lemon juice, honey, mustard, garlic clove, salt and pepper

Sunday Shenanigans!
Curried Lamb shank. Creamed spinach. Pearl Barley salad (my main). Roast butternut & saucy roast chicken legs! 😋
Now we wait for the sun to go down so we can enjoy this yummy meal cos wow IT IS HOT!!!
I will be sharing the recipes during the course of the week!

A big thank you to for sponsoring our cooking class!!!

Snippets from our Christmas cooking class this past weekend! The joy these classes bring to my heart ❤️ it’s one thing when people like your posts, comment and try the recipes - but when they believe in your untrained skills enough to pay to be taught personally by you, oh man, that makes all of this so worthwhile! I can’t thank you all enough!

On Monday we take it easy! Here’s an easy spicy chicken wings recipe!

12 chicken wings
1 Tbsp oil
3 Tbsp Braai & Grill Spicy BBQ
1 tsp Paprika
3 Tbsp honey
2 Tbsp soy sauce
¼ cup tomato sauce

Mix all the ingredients together to make a marinade.
Rub into the chicken and marinade for at least an hour (overnight is best for a more intense flavour)
Cook in the microwave on high for 10 minutes. Then place on braai, turning every 5 minutes until they are cooked through. Easy peasy!

Cheesy, pull apart herby garlic bread! For your next braai, please make your own! 😍😋 Recipe below!

1 french loaf
1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
1-2 teaspoon Robertsons Braai & Grill All-in-one spice blend
1 Tablespoon freshly minced garlic
2 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped

Mix together the butter, spice, garlic and all the herbs & pour into the slits of the bread.
Follow with grated mozzarella cheese.
Cover with foil. Place on the braai, away from direct heat, for about 15-18 minutes until the cheese melts.

Is this steak and salad OR is it a steak salad?? 😂😅

Olive oil and Braai & Grill All In One seasoning.
Made the steak in cast iron grill pan for perfect grill lines 😍

Friday! What’s good??
This is what we are having this side! This flame grilled chicken is IT!!!!

CHICKEN RECIPE:
2T oil
2t lemon
2t honey
2T Braai & Grill spicy BBQ

Mix all the ingredients together and marinade the chicken. I then microwaved the chicken for a few minutes before placing it on the braai. Don’t braai directly over the coals, so the chicken can cook through without burning!

Food and Life Conversations with Vuyi 🤩

This was supposed to happen early December last year… then I was scheduled for surgery & a whole lot of life happened afterwards. I am so proud of myself for finally taking the plunge on 5 July and sending out the invitation. Due to popular demand the Sunday class was added!

Thank you to all these beauties who trust my abilities and the little knowledge I have to share!!

We will definitely have more of these!
