This weekend topics have been the most tempting topics so far that leaves you salivating over so many nice dishes you can't have a taste of, it has really been a means to know some great dishes and how to prepare some of them. I love the fact that I get to chat with some and I'm expecting some tutor on how to prepare different Noddles from @trangbaby's post any time soon. According to the questions asked by @galenkp, I will start from the last to the first-

Nigeria have a variety of different ethnic groups or tribe which means we have different variety of food but the food that is wildly accepted by every tribe is the Jollof Rice, it is a dish that is generally prepared in any occasion. Apart from the fact that it can be prepared anytime but during the Christmas season, you will find it in almost every house you enter.

We call this dish Abacha also known as African salad it is one of the well known or general dish found in Eastern Nigeria, it is a very quick and easy meal to prepare as long as you gat all your ingredients ready.
Show us your favourite food and tell us why you like it.
Talking about my favorite food would be a long story to talk about because I don't have one favorite and in this case I have a variety to choose from so picking a favorite is damn well difficult. I will list a few of my favorites so you could see. They are Abacha, Rice and Stew, Hamburger, Pizza, ice cream, Golden Morn, Isi Ewu,Pap, Fried plantain with Noddles,
Banga Stew and Rice

Nsala Soup and Fufu
Beans and Plantain
Any food I consider as my favorite are meal I can eat anytime or any day, most times the presentation of a dish draws us to like that dish but still its the taste that makes us return to that dish next time. The reason I love these dish and some I didn't mention is the taste of the dish.
Show us what you're eating this weekend and tell us about it.
For this weekend, I had Roasted Plantain and Stew its one food I don't eat always because its only one vendor that prepares it to my taste and we don't roast plantain at home. Anytime I'm at the shop that's what I love to eat.
The jollof rice was prepared by my sister and it was really tasty, when you have the right ingredients you can actually make it for yourself. You will need Rice, Tomato Paste, Fresh Tomatoes, Groundnut Oil,Beef or Chicken,Pepper, Beef or Chicken Stock and spices. The ice cream was a plus for the weekend, to consolidate me for all the nice dishes I was seeing but couldn't taste.
