My favorite and more✌️

My love for this particular food is unspeakable, like....it's the only meal I can eat for a complete week without getting tired of eating it. I remember back then as a little girl mom decided to punish myself and my siblings due to our constant rejection of other meals and the punishment was that she wasn't going to cook rice for the whole of that week so we get use to other meals too. Trust me when I say the punishment didn't go as planned for her because each and every day she just keeps on trashing expensive food. Well you can't totally blame us because we tried eating out of the prepared meals but the appetite wasn't there so after eating a little we are full already. Seeing how food was constantly wasted no one told her to end the punishment with immediate effect. You know when it comes to being selective just give the award to my siblings and I but that was then sha. 🤣

A lot of people around usually say Ene I bet you can't eat rice for a complete week including lunch and dinner and my feedback to them would be that's because you haven't seem me do that. To some point I wanted to also doubt myself of not being able to eat one meal for seven days, twice in a day making it fourteen times like who does that? 🤷 Around 2020 I tried it but it didn't work out because when everyone at home traveled and left me in the house my uncle's wife kept knocking on the door with different varieties of food and it would be so unfair if I trash it out.

But here is the gist.... Sometimes 2022 January to be pricised, I traveled to the federal capital territory of Nigeria Abuja where I went for a construction skills acquisition. On getting there I realized my uncle whom am to stay with has two separate homes in different location and this is why. the kids school is a very long distance away from home and after several persuasion from the dad and mom for them to attend a school closer to home they refused and one thing with my uncle, he wants to ensure they are comfortable in their learning center so he has no choice than to rent an apartment closer to the school to ease the morning stress and dangers of the road. Me on the other hand the main house was closer to my training center so I had to stay there but every weekend and holidays the kids comes to stay with me including their mom and dad.

Okay....this wasn't intentional because my uncles wife bought a lot of tomatoes from the market along side with a full chicken the only thing in my mind was to prepare chicken stew and that's the exact thing I did. From the Sunday I prepared it I only realized have been eating rice and stew when the stew finished on Sunday the following week. There and then I said to myself indeed no other meal can take the place of rice in my life. So ladies and gentlemen of hive, indiaunited community my favorite food is rice it can be either cooked as jollof, white rice and stew, rice and beans but let it be rice.

The picture are so mouth watering, i can almost taste them. I too love eating rice. Its one food that one can find everywhere and it is easy to cook. The fact that it comes in various types like the stew rice, fried rice, banga stew rice or plain white rice is what makes me never grow tired of eating it. Wish you the best in this contest
