Egg Tomato Sauce

Looking for a quick and healthy meal to make up for the time you spent chatting with your loved ones? Try this simple Egg and Tomato sauce and share your experience with us. We all know the tomato and its beautiful nature. It is one of the most used vegetables in our everyday meals (... actually, na me chop this sauce with boiled rice first). It is one of the cheapest recipes I have ever made. 
My ingredients were so relaxed, fresh and willing to be part of the mix. I sliced the two tomatoes into four parts each, getting 8 quartered sections. The garlic did not feel much pain this time...because I squashed it with the base of my Palm. The two eggs involved were the first to ask me, "Itagokwaife?” ..Funny eggs abi? Between the eggs and the spring onions, there was a little misunderstanding, which was my fault. That was why I had to fry the eggs first and set them aside. Salt, red pepper, garlic, celery were up to the task, ready to go. 
If you have eaten or tasted raw tomatoes before, u would agree with me that they are very friendly when it comes to relating with our taste buds. All the ingredients went, one after the other, into my wok  as agreed, allowing the spring onions to step in as a witness at the end. Last of all, I added half a cup water to this simple and easy recipe (... did you hear that water does not really have any enemy?).  After adding a pinch of my kitchen sauce, I stirred for another five minutes and chopped tite. #itagokwaife?

Simple Ways To Get Your Body Moving.

Simple Ways To Get Your Body Moving.
You can start the process of being healthy and weight loss now by adding a little more activity to your life. If you're not ready for a structured program, start small. Every little bit counts and it all adds up to burning more calories.
  • Turn off the TV. Once a week, turn off the TV and do something a little more physical with your family. Play games, take a walk...almost anything will be more active than sitting on the couch.
  • Walk more. Look for small ways to walk more. When you get the mail, take a walk around the block, take the dog for an extra outing each day or walk on your treadmill for 5 minutes before getting ready for work.
  • Do some chores. working in the garden, raking leaves, sweeping the floor...these kinds of activities may not be 'vigorous' exercise, but they can keep you moving while getting your house in order.
  • Pace while you talk. When you're on the phone, pace around or even do some cleaning while gabbing. This is a great way to stay moving while doing something you enjoy.
  • Be aware. Make a list of all the physical activities you do on a typical day. If you find that the bulk of your time is spent sitting, make another list of all the ways you could move more--getting up each hour to stretch or walk, walk the stairs at work, etc.

Walking (Exercise).

    Walking is an excellent way to become active again. The key is to start slowly and persist. You can do it indoors on a treadmill or outdoors, whichever you prefer....depending on your environment. If you live in an area where okada plenty more than human being...please watch your side as you walk.

If you stick to it and make each walk a little more challenging than your last one, you will soon be feeling much better.
If you also eat well, the results possible from just walking may amaze you!
Although it is not the best exercise to lose weight from a physiological perspective, walking does work.


You will not only be walking to lose weight; you will quickly find that you feel better, you look better, and you are healthier! You will become more trim and energetic. Soon others will begin noticing and start complimenting you—and even asking for advice! (Before changing your exercise habits, first obtain the blessing of your personal physician.)
Let’s assume that you have been inactive. If you do a lot of walking, you may lose weight. However, the chief value of this plan is simply to get you more active.


Note: Always make sure that you are facing the coming motor when walking.#itagokwaife?

Eating Healthy.

    Eating healthy starts with learning how to build a personal relationship with food. It is not by affording a plate of salad in the best restaurants. If you want to eat healthy, you must first and foremost understand food from the natural point of view. And for you to understand food, u must come to food with a clean heart. Learn to treat food like living thingz,accommodate them in your environment, learn to share with them.   Buy your food in a food flask not in a poli bag. Pay for your food, don,t let your food feel that  you are cheating on the food seller. Be truthful about your hunger,don,t eat food by obtaining. Buy them fresh, don,t wait for the reminant...you are not a trash can.

If you do all this, your relationship with food will become so healthy that you don,t need a doctor to place you on a by force diet. And when you build a healthy relationship with food,you will not be needing any doctor to deprive you of you favorite food in the name of dieting. You will know what to eat and drink...your food will become a solid link between you mind and body.

There are two types of food relationship, healthy and unhealthy food relationship. The type of relationship you have with food...plays a big role in eating healthy.
If u are one of those that eat at first site without knowing the make up of the food..."na youknow oooo". If u are using food as a companion when u are lonely...."na your body go tell you". If you are not interested in balancing you food,find out why....you must be lacking some information. If you are a miracle seeker through fasting....go see your doctor oo..Ulcer no be man friend ooo. Una do well..make I face my Kitchen Jare...#itagokwaife?

Pineaple Rice.

Recipes like this can only come from Chef valicci's  Kitchen Thingz.  A Kitchen without wall. The only kitchen that represents healthy lifestyle in its fullness. The fresh pineapple that took part in this simple recipe was actually meant for my personal consumption. As a personal chef, I know my kitchen and my kitchen knows me. The same thing goes with my client and my cooking utensils.

My mood was a bit shaky on the day i made this food....but i did not let it get to my cooking  skills ...it only affected my turning stick.
The caterer that ate this food did not leave a comment after eating but her countenance said a lot though.
Rice,pineapple,cabbage,cucumber,pepper,garlic, egg and spring onions were the particulars of this recipe.

Rice and garlic with half cup of fresh pineapple juice,  matched up with them selves in a bowl before entering the wok on fire. The fried scattered eggs were on standby....waiting for their turn to go in and show the stuffs they were made of.

In less than seven minutes, both the rice,pineapple, pepper,fried eggs,cucumber,spring onions, salt and other follow follow ingredients, plus including my God's given skills went into the wok as a team and came out victorious as a Pine Rice..

Basic Fried Rice

This is a basic recipe that you can add to as u like depending on the quantity of rice you want to serve...u are also free to add some vegetables if you get fresh one for your kitchen.  If you relate well with food, you will be so close that nothing will be hidden from you in your kitchen, all your fresh and available ingredients will be willing to join hands and come up with something rich and mouthwatering.

In this healthy recipe, It was so easy for me to put together the likes of shrimp and chicken fillets together with celery. The basic spice at work was the combination of garlic, ginger and spring onions. Cabbage had to come in from the bench because of its calm nature...knowing that it does not last in my wok.
The rice i used in this recipe has already been cooked like 6 hours  before this time. It's  actually our local rice. For those of you who believe that foreign rice is better ...please Learn how to cook our local rice and stop spoiling our rice.

Another important part of this recipe was that i consulted my client before adding all this ingredients that made this fried rice a basic one. She did well on her own part too. I always say it here and there that we need healthy communication to be able to fix healthy meal. If I did not relate with her, I will never know that she skipped her breakfast mistakenly due to road traffic. And all her hope was to come and finish all I have in the kitchen.

Shrimps and chicken fillets were the first to feel the heat of my wok cause I needed to stir fry them and set aside to relate with each other on how to work with our local rice for a healthy and fresh fried rice.

After the first stir fry that lasted for about 5 minutes, I brought in a fresh wok to fry the two eggs I used for the fried rice. U need to see the way this eggs just skata like sat war dey..but I prefer it scattered for fried rice. Trust my cutting board. All the veges needed were layed in state for proper cutting,plus including garlic and ginger.

It's almost twenty minutes and my client face don de change from hunger to hungry...no be person tell me to put a fresh wok on fire and allow it to heat up to a level ,i poured in the garlic and ginger ,then follow them up with rice on a high heat...shrimps and chicken follows immediately,before adding pepper and salt to taste . As soon a the vegetables came into the scene ...I stir-fried for another 2 minutes and serve hot.

Thanks for being here with chef valicci and his kitchen thingz..
