Most of us spend our weekends lazying in bed or even watching television all day. No! that's not how a weekend must be spent.

The worst weekend experience ever is when you also leave home to buy meals at a food joint when indeed you could do just that in the comfort of your kitchen. In Accra for example, the cost of a plate of rice and chicken could be very expensive as you can spend between 10 to 20 cedis if you are lucky. But how about treating yourself as the king or queen you are through some sumptuous African dishes? Now is the time to figure out the 7 magical dishes you can try on a weekend!

1. Red-red

Call it the poor man's food but truth be told, boiled beans and fried plantain can match your weekend boot for boot! The nutritional benefits of this meal are all about proteins and other vitamins especially from the rich touch of palm oil.



2. Banku with fried fish and green pepper

Come on! Your weekend can never be complete with a taste of the heavenly meal called Banku. This is a meal that adds a spicy touch to your weekend. Remember to add some slices of onions and tomatoes.



3. Fufu

This is the most enjoyed meal in the whole of Ghana and there's no doubt that you love this dish! On a lovely weekend, the best soup for your Fufu could be goat or chicken lightsoup!



4.Fried yam

This is the most simple and absolutely healthy dish that you can ever sacrifice your soul for! All you need is to boil or fry the yam and march some green or red pepper. Your sardines already come with the complete magic.
