What are your family's top 3 favorite meals?

What is your family's favorite meal?
I find it hard to believe that any family on earth can agree on what meal is the best.

My favorite meal is Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. My brother is not a huge fan and would much prefer a juicy steak.

So to my family, I guess our favorite meal would be the ones where we are together at mealtime, despite whatever food is in front of us

We don't agree on much when it comes to food, but we do have a couple of favorites that we always enjoy as a family.

Top of the list is TACOS. Easily modified for each person as you make your own with the ingredients you prefer plus the taco shells can be substituted with soft tortillas and made into burritos. You will need shredded lettuce, diced tomato, salsa, cheese, and seasoned mince (commonly beef but we have tried chicken and turkey tacos).

Other options to include are jalapeños, corn, grated carrot (I cook this into the mince with some diced onion), sour cream, avocado, cucumber, and capsicum.

MAMAS SPAGHETTI comes in at number 2. We probably have spaghetti bolognese at least once a fortnight, usually weekly. I don't make it as a traditional bolognese, I add some different ingredients (read the secret recipe) to put my spin on it.

Rounding out the top 3 is a ROAST DINNER. Tender roast meat with gravy and golden roast potatoes, pumpkin with blackened skin, carrots, and steamed green vegetables is always a winner. My favorite cuts/meat are Pork Belly, Silverside (boiled in water and served with roast veg), and a Whole stuffed Chicken.

All of these meals are quick (the roast does cook itself) and very simple and affordable to make for regular family dinners. Happy cooking!

In a significant development that has sent ripples across the nation's academic and political landscape, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has announced the renaming of the University of Maiduguri to "Muhammadu Buhari University, Maiduguri."

The recent recovery of a baby allegedly sold for a staggering N25 million in Ebonyi State, with the biological mother reportedly receiving only N700,000, has sent shockwaves across Nigeria. This disturbing incident serves as a stark and painful reminder of the rampant issue of child trafficking that continues to plague communities, preying on vulnerability and perpetuating unimaginable harm. According to reports, the swift intervention of the Ebonyi State Government led to the rescue of the infant and the commencement of investigations into what appears to be a deeply entrenched child trafficking ring. The disparity between the alleged selling price of the baby and the meager sum given to the mother highlights the exploitative nature of this illicit trade, where human lives are commodified for exorbitant profits. This case underscores several critical issues. Firstly, it brings to the fore the desperate circumstances that can push individuals, particularly vulnerable women, into ma...
