A quick and simple-filling lunch. With ingredients that children like.
With the children on holidays, sometimes coming up with an easy-filling meal can be a challenge.
Potatoes and eggs. What can be more filling than that? Serve this with a glass of milk, or a banana and avocado smoothie and the children will be good until dinner time. The one great thing about this recipe, it will cost you just about Sh300. How cool is that?
Add some leftover meat, sausage or bacon to it when frying the onions and potatoes and garnish with cheese if you so desire.
