Hello Everyone!
I hope you are having a great week! Today’s recipe is perfect for a nice Sunday lunch or dinner with your friends and family. I had this deliciousness on Sunday for lunch with my friends. They came over for the weekend and I just had to treat them right😃. I know this recipe is a bit late on the blog but definitely worth it. It is super easy to prepare and quick, that is how I like my meals to be. I am always busy and also like to eat good, so I am always into recipes that will not keep me in the kitchen for more than 2 hours tops;😏 okay an 1 hour 30 mins during the week, I can spend my entire day in the kitchen during the weekend💃. As a lover of food, I appreciate the intricacy when it comes to food preparation and I know good quality food takes time and patience. Zinny Factor I am sure this is a recipe your readers will love, I can not keep this deliciousness away from your readers 😁
Now let’s get to it.
Enjoy!
