What's for chop #12 - Strawberries-Pretzel Salad Pie |
|
This is one of my favorite desserts here in Sierra Leone, totally not African - and not always are all the ingredients in the supermarket. I got the recipe from Nancy one of our American missionairies here in Freetown.
Hope you will enjoy it too.

What's for chop #11 Jollof Rice |
|
 Saturday is a day off for "Fatu" our cook and on a regular basis we as a team will go out to eat for dinner, as it is still reasonable cheap here. Last night we said goodbye to Dr. Nell, she has been with us for just over two weeks and loved her time here, learning VVF surgery. I had a difficult time deciding what to eat and ended up with JOLLOF RICE - another African Dish you might like to try out ....

What's for chop #10 Banana Bread |
 BANANA BREAD – recipe from one of the expats here in Freetown, thanks Nancy for sharing this with me.
It is wonderful, I love it after my long run on Saturday with a cup of coffee and regularly I go back in memory lane when my friend Terri and I, on a Saturday morning after our run, would sit on pool deck of the Anastasis. However I love it before I go to work as well :)

What is for chop #8 Coconut Brownies |
 Coconut Brownies, this is more a dessert for us expats and our national staff when we have special meetings than for our patients. Even though they love their tea as sweet as possible they are not known to eat a lot of sweet dessert. This is a great dessert with some vanilla ice cream and a cup of coffee (or tea).

What's for chop #1 Cassava Leaves |
|
 Join us for African food at the clinic-this week Cassava leaves . This is one of Sierra Leones best liked foods! We eat cassava leaves over cooked rice and with chicken or fish in the leaves/sauce....prepared with a lot of palm oil... Cassava leaves (Manihot esculenta Crantz) constitute the main daily source of protein as supplement to the major staple food, the processed cassava roots in remote rural areas of Africa.
