Mango Sauce Noodle......


WTF - Where's The Food?

 Sometimes you just get exhausted standing in front of your refrigerator looking for the perfect lunch/dinner. This time I was craving a tangy veggie noodle of some sort but I still wasn't exactly sure of what it was. Still staring at the refrigerator, I couldn't muster up anything then I decided to take a friendly walk to the grocery store. I picked up ripe mangos, spiralized sweet potato, butternut squash and beetroot and headed home to bring this idea of Mango sauce noodle to life!!! Trust me when I say it hit the spot!!! Super creamy meals always do that!!!!!

 Mango Sauce Noodle.



Ingredients : Mango Sauce Noodle


  • 3 oz of spiralized  beetroot
  • 3 oz of spiralized butternut squash
  • 3 oz of spiralized sweet potato
  • 1 sprig of mint leave or any herb of your choice (Rosemary leaves, sage, cilantro etc)
  • 1 Lemon or Lime
  • 1 Ripe mango
You can buy the spiralized beetroot and it likes from a grocery store if you don't own a spiralizer yet or just want to take the easy way out like I did - I don't plan to keep you in the kitchen for a decade.


Direction: Noodle

For those who prefer preparing from scratch:
  • Spiralize the beetroot, butternut squash and sweet potato into noodles and place in a large bowl and mix.
For those who prefer to buy from the store just like I did:

  • Pour the quantity/portion of spiralized beetroot, butternut squash and sweet potato into a large bowl and mix.
Prep: mango sauce
  • Properly wash both hands.
  • Cut the mango into chunks and place in a bowl

  • Cut the lemon into equal halves and juice using a handheld lemon juice

  • Wash the mint leaves and place in a clean bowl 

Direction: Mango Sauce
  • Pour the lemon juice and mango chunks into a blender, add the mint leaves and blend thoroughly until a smooth mixture is achieved.
Serving: Mango Sauce Noodle
  • Pour the mango sauce into the noodles and mix









  • Serve with water.
  • Bon Appetit!

"Lemons are loaded with healthy benefits, and particularly, they're a great vitamin C food source. One cup of fresh lemon juice provides 187 percent of your daily recommended serving of vitamin C — take that, oranges! Lemon juice also offers up a healthy serving of potassium, magnesium and copper". - Retrieved from www.google.com

    Cookie Crust Banana Ice-cream....... Just because I love bananas!

    Image
    Bananas are extremely healthy and yummyyyyy. They contain several essential nutrients, and have benefits for digestion, heart health and weight loss. Bananas are among the most popular fruits on earth. Bananas contain a fair amount of fiber, as well as several antioxidants. bla bla bla.  In as much as this is not why I am here, I thought it beneficial to back up my love for bananas as they always taught me to cite my references while writing grad school paper works :) frustrating right?  SUMMER  I look at the sun and all I can think of are bananas. :) :) Always remember that the owner of this blog loves food just so I don't always surprise you with my comparisons. Summers in Virginia can always get up 80 -95 degrees Fahrenheit. (Now that is very hot!!) But that's when you come up with summer food ideas like my Cookie Crust Banana Ice-Cream  with awesome toppings(my secret for now). I do the most but that's just me trying to exceed your expectations.

    Simple Nigerian Stew

    Image
    Stew is a Nigerian term for tomato sauce or paste base that can be eaten along side any brand of rice, pasta or roots (potatoes and yams). It is a versatile dish that every Nigerian ought to be an expert in preparing this. There are so many ways different tribes in Nigeria prepare this dish. Some use either fresh peppers, fresh tomatoes or puree, while some combine all three. Regardless of your choice, there are indigenous ingredients that must be present. Also, the kind of meat preferred is also optional. The most exciting part of this dish are the unique taste, easy recipe and short cooking time (No one likes to spend a century in the kitchen). Let me teach you how to prepare a pot of stew in 20 mins (excluding prep time) and have your stomach emitting butterflies (I'm serious as a heart attack).  Pork Neck Stew. Ingredients. 3 Cups of olive or vegetable oil One medium onions finely chopped. (if preferred or in chunks) Pork Neck or any choice of meat 1 Spr

    Pancake w/ Warm Blueberry Sauce

    Image
    Did you hear about the angry pancake? He just flipped.  The word "Fluffy" finally has a visual meaning to me, thanks to these delicious pancakes. My first experience with pancake (frozen kind) wasn't such a memorable one, until I was treated to lunch at IHOP by my best friend. Comparing the events, I noticed the difference was mostly about the fluffiness. Not only that, IHOP is famous for their eye catching presentation. Pancakes are just plain fried batter that without toppings, are far from delicious (my opinion). It is recommended to get super creative with toppings and presentation while serving. I always adhere to the philosophy of "feed the eyes before the mouth". Although it doesn't guarantee that every well garnished meal is delicious, but it depicts a well thought out and executed plan. It is also evocative of individual color representation. I really hope to exceed your expectation with this plate of "delicious fluffiness". Pancake w/
