No one can be hostile when presented with a hot plate of beans. Beans Is that one meal that I would serve to everyone and anyone in the face of war or merriment.
Let's get ahead to my entry for the Hive Naija contest

Any one of my local delicacies would have been a better option because of how tasty they are. Definitely. But in the face of an invasion, with my making a sumptuous meal that gets the buds of the aliens pulsing and rejoicing, beans it will be. Now the reason is that, unlike other meals, this one is where I consider myself a professional.
In the situation that I prepare a dish that isn't appealing, it is almost certain that humanity will be wiped out or we get to face dire consequences, which will leave me feeling so much guilt. Life is so much fun and I cherish us all so much that I wouldn't want that. And this, I know, is the surest way to salvation.
Not to boast not gloat, but my beans making game is a 100. Porridge beans precisely. From a young age, I've always received my flowers. Even until today, I haven't found a rival.
Beans is a meal very rich in Carbohydrate.. It might be quite easy to prepare but not everyone gets it right. I'll refrain from sharing my secret recipe here. Not like anyone would smash it if I share. Lol.
From my observation and general knowledge, is a common meal and some persons do not like it. It's always amuses me but I understand that we can't all like same thing. And I never fail to tell those who don't like it that, "you just haven't tasted mine."
Beans is a very straight to the point and tasty meal that lives a sweet taste in the mouth for so long. With the right quantity of ingredients, in addition to some good crayfish, smoked fish and tomatoes, not forgetting a nice portion of oil, you can make it bang. It's that meal you don't have to do too much with before it comes out glowing. it's a Happy Meal and I have managed to convert some people I know who do not like it into lovers of it.
And so I think that it will be same with the aliens, even though am not sure they have had a taste of it before. Whatever it is, this food will work on them.
And also, if I just don't want the aliens to let go of the humans but beg to be a part of humanity, I would serve the meal with hot creamy pap or some smoked garri. One thing is sure then, they might just take off their shirts, fall asleep after eating and once when they awake, they will take forthemselves human names.
Asides the obvious nutritional benefits which am not exactly taking into consideration, my aim would be to just serve them something that would probably leave them all confused, maybe like the time of the Tower of Babel. You know, they may just go against themselves and leaves humans wielding power. Or if it changes their mood and leaves them being smiling and stretching forth hands of peace and maybe some certain cordiality, wouldn't that be nice?
