Recipe week (Day 5)

We are almost there, it’s day 5 and another recipe is coming your way. So apparently we are going to be on lock down for another 3 weeks, at this point I don’t even know what to think anymore. I used to complain on how school runs were getting difficult and tiresome but its times like these that I’d totally love to walk for 30 minutes and pick up my son. How are you all coping by the way? Unless I am the only one overreacting and I have no idea. My baby boy turns 2 this weekend and I have already seen what the terrible twos have in store for me that’s why the playground being open would totally be lifesaving or anything that doesn’t involve running around the house screaming. Let’s just jump right into today’s recipe, my stove top tender chicken stew.

Recipe week (Day 4)

Well it’s me again. I hope you’re all having a great week and still surviving life indoors. As you can see I am back again and we are on day 4 people. I know you’re probably almost tired of me but hopefully not yet, let’s just finish the week then we can all take a breather and do stop by days 1,2 and 3 too. Today it’s all about the lovely avocado in my simple, fresh homemade guacamole. Guacamole can be a little bit controversial if you ask me depending on where you’re from because there’s the smooth, spicy, chunky and the crazy version with other ingredients added to it. What I don’t get is the people who hate avocado, like really? It hasn’t done anything wrong and I just love it. Anyway, this is my simple, fresh homemade guacamole recipe. I mean it’s not really a recipe since you just throw in a few ingredients together, for this you will need;

I don’t know what it is but it just doesn’t mesh well with me when it’s super plain hence my recipe for you today are these delicious and simple tuna fish cakes. For this recipe, you will need;
