2 ingredients simple yet filling recipe for your little one's. This one is sure to impress them and make them go for it on any day. The best part is that it can be stored in airtight containers and enjoyed as needed. I have used Kimia Dates for this. You can use any variety of them that are easily available to you.
This can be a great option for everyday Snacking. An afterschool quick munchie or a super delicious and a healthy Brunch on a weekend as well. The list is endless.
I usually pack these in their Lunchboxes too so that they can have them during the short break. And it's perfectly okay to eat these on a daily basis as the growing children needs lots of nutritional goodness in their diet. Almonds, Cashewnuts, Walnuts etc also make other lovely variations that one can try.
Enjoy No Cooking with Zeen!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.

Groundnut Stew served with Rice and Spinach #authormarathon#
Ground nuts aka Njugu karanga are rich in proteins with their own natural oil. When making a stew with them, one does not need to use cooking oil at all, but only when need be, like in this case, I wanted the fried onions taste in this stew. Note: this is good stew for those who are dieting.Alternatively, You can blend the tomatoes and onions and the mixed spices. Put in a Sufuria, place on fire and cook them, when it boils you add in your blended (in a dry mill) groundnuts, add salt, and cook till ready.

Potato-less Kunde Mokimo With Israeli Salad A La Grace
As you may have noticed if you're keen, I have a whole bunch of foods stocked up that I'm trying to clear so I have to find more creative ways to cook them. (Africa we really need to change our subsistence farming LOL! Diversify). Anyway, potatoes are also said to not be very good for diabetics so I said, anything can be mashed if your heart is in it. Israeli Salad I find the star ingredients are cucumber, tomatoes, and green hoho but I said what if I cook the tomatoes? They're healthier cooked, anyway, and I've also been working on healthier salad dressings anyway.
