What we eating today Ghanafuo?

... Read moreGhanaian cuisine is rich, diverse, and full of flavors that reflect the country's culture and traditions. When I think about what we are eating today, especially in Ghana, several traditional dishes quickly come to mind. For instance, Jollof rice is a favorite that combines rice cooked in a savory tomato sauce with spices. It's often served with fried plantains or grilled chicken, making it a hearty and satisfying meal. Another staple is Waakye, a popular street food made from rice and beans, usually served with a variety of sides like gari (grated cassava), boiled eggs, and spicy stews. It’s a go-to meal for many Ghanaians because it is both filling and affordable. Banku and tilapia is also a beloved combo; banku is a fermented corn and cassava dough, often enjoyed with hot pepper sauce and grilled fish. This dish offers a unique sour and spicy flavor profile that many locals enjoy. In my experience, the best way to appreciate Ghanaian meals is through sharing with family or friends, whether at home or in lively local eateries. The communal aspect of dining makes the experience even more memorable. If you haven’t tried these dishes yet, consider exploring them through local food spots or cooking them at home using authentic recipes. Not only do these meals satisfy hunger, but they also offer a window into Ghana’s rich culinary heritage.

While I am happy and proud to be part of a country that is beautiful and filled with culture. I’m disappointed in the recent Anti-LGBTQ bill that passed. The bill includes putting allies in jail for showing support to people who stigmatized every day. If you have ever been to Ghana it is clear

Last summer I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Ghana on a medical mission trip with a local nursing organization. It was quiet a humbling and rewarding experience. If you ever get a chance to take part in a journey of compassion I would highly recommend. 🌍💙 #MedicalMission #GhanaBound
