FOOD MIX AND KITS: Are they really just as good as meals prepared from scratch?

Dear Granny Dora,


I work a full time job and have an african family (and you know how we love our meal time).

I'm always so tired after work and feel bad constantly ordering takeout. It gets expensive.

I want my family to enjoy delicious homecooked meals no matter what. I'm also health conscious and particular about what we put inside our body.

What kind of recipes do you recommend I try that won't stress me even more after work, healthy and nutritious,  that wil also give my family that enthusiasm for meal time?



Dear Reader,

Thank you for your mail. Granny DorA is here to help ? 

My absolute favorite go-to quick recipe is Egusi Soup.

It use to take hours to prepare (going to market/store, picking up ingredients, prepping ingredients for cooking , an hour of cooking before you finally get to eat).

I think I speak for all of us when I say, that process was TEDIOUS and a full time job all by itself.

Thanks to products like "EGUSI SOUP MADE EASY" by HATFs Shepherd's Natural , your family meal is one click away and ready in just 20 mins or less.


I know you're wondering, would it be as fresh and delicious as individually store bought items? .... ABSOUTELY!

Egusi kits like the HATFs EGUSI MADE EASY mentioned above, has individually packed items which not only seals in the freshness and taste, it also gives you complete control of your portions, mixture and output.

With individually packed items, I find that I can cook just as much as I need, and save the rest for later. I can also use the ingredients for other dishes too, which makes me feel like I get more value for my money.

Granny, with so many sellers saying theirs is the best,  how do I know the good stuff? 

When choosing any easy kit, it's important to look out for the following:

- 100% All Natural
- No added preservatives 
- Non GMO
- also check size properly as some kits are only enough for single person meals and not family sized.
- Items coming in a Resealable pouch or container is also a huge bonus

Not only are you assured that the ingredients were carefuy sourced and not genetically modified, you also get to maintain freshness and quality in its original packaging (which has all the manufacturer information you need to preserve).

In summary my dear, 
Why is an egusi soup kit just as good as buying the ingredients from scratch?
 
- Convenience:
An egusi soup kit contains all the necessary ingredients pre-measured and pre-mixed, saving you the time and effort of sourcing and preparing each component individually.
 
- Consistency:
The kit ensures you get the perfect balance of spices, seasonings, and other ingredients to achieve an authentic, restaurant-quality egusi soup flavor every time.
 
- Cost-Effectiveness:
Buying the kit can be more economical than purchasing all the individual ingredients, which may result in leftover portions that go to waste.
 
- Versatility:
Many kits are designed to be adaptable, allowing you to customize the recipe by adding your own choice of proteins, vegetables, or other preferred ingredients.
 
- Shelf-Life: The packaged ingredients in the kit typically have a longer shelf-life compared to fresh produce, reducing the risk of spoilage and waste.
