Well, I got so busy within the week and this morning I had to attend to an emergency, so for that, this week episode of Saturday dining with 
This week we are just going to make soup and eat it with wheat. Our Soup is VEGETABLE SOUP
Vegetable soup sometimes called edikaikong is popular in Nigeria especially among the efiks. It is highly nutritious with quite a number of vitamins such as Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Vitamin E, Vitamin K and other minerals such as Iron, Magnesium and Phosphorus.
However it loses its nutrients if refrigerated over a long period of time. So while you want to eat much of it for it's nutritional value, make just enough to last for a day or two.
