We could all do with spicing up our lives right now, especially here in the southernmost country of Africa where it's been all doom and gloom.
Having to face the onslaught of the Cruel Coronavirus that's brought a new variant to our shores, has been heartbreaking for many of our friends.
We have to make sure the family get good nourishment, now more than ever before!
Spicing things up and cutting back on meat is just what the doctor ordered so I would say 
Garlic, Ginger and Turmeric all boost the immune system and reduces inflammation; adding hot spicy Chili powder to that will certainly help thin mucus thus clearing the upper airways.
Start arming yourself by building up a strong immune system, if you have not done so already; so take regular walks, breathe in that fresh air and sit in the sun for at least 15 minutes a day to get your daily dose of Vitamin D!
Shop online to avoid the crowds while the pandemic rages on, and enjoy the extra time you have on hand plus the added bonus of not having to face those irritating long queues!
Enough of my chattering though, so let's get into the Hive Kitchen and Cook Vegetarian!
