My Naija Christmas Food Wishlist

  • December 04, 2018

Christmas is our favourite season of the year and it’s not because of the snow, or the kissing under the mistletoe, or the halls that are decked or the reindeer and Santa. It’s because of the birth of Jesus and of course, food, like no other time of the year.

It isn’t getting gifts that excite us about Christmas either, most of us, don’t even get gifts on Christmas.

During Christmas here in Nigeria, the decoration in your house or on your lawn doesn’t matter as much as the food on the table, the food visitors will eat and the food that will satisfy family and loved ones.

Growing up in a typical Nigerian house; you would have chicken (grilled, fried, barbecued, roasted, dipped, peppered), fried rice, jollof rice, maybe white rice, sald or cole slaw, maybe cake, juices, amala, pounded yam or poundo yam (depending on whether they are from Ekiti or not) and the regular party foods.

People are beginning to ask “What’s there to eat again this christmas?’

Don’t you worry. We are the proclaimers of good news and we have prepared a list of different and delicious dishes that can make your 2018 christmas a blast and one that your taste buds will always refer to.

About Me

 

Khyra Blog

My name is Juliet and I’m a mom, businesswoman, blogger, aspiring baker and Vincent’s lifetime girl! As a passionate weight ‘loss enthusiast’, I help people overcome their weight challenges by providing motivation, meal plans, recipes, exercise plans, tips and tricks simply because I’ve been there.

I believe in life- in all its beauty, dangers, worries, fun, pains, work (O yes!) excitement, happiness. I know that within each one of us is a burning desire to share, to do good, to work, to find meaning, to enhance that which we perceive to be oh so not good about us.

Weight challenges are an individual thing. Beauty issues are in the eyes of the beholder (my take!). But then, there’s a common denominator in all our problems: they won’t go away on their own. 

There’s no one size fits all remedy for life’s problems. At khyra my aim is to provide you with the motivation, info, tools, time and community of like minds to help on your journey to a fit, graceful and trendy you. 

I’ll be sharing home grown, weight loss, beauty and fitness ideas that help the modern woman (and our men!) shed excess kilograms, keep the weight off, live healthy vibrant lives, enjoying themselves and being at their most beautiful and productive best

Visiting for the first time?  Welcome!  For you to have read this far, it means you are ready to take charge of your life, enjoy your time on the planet and give life your best shot. I welcome queries, suggestions and criticisms. Living is learning and Khyra ain’t no different!
