Bobo Gobanga

This is a high fiber high protein meal that can be used as a side dish or as your main meal.

Bobo Gobanga is a healthy inexpensive meal ideal for the busy person on the go.

For example Monday I can serve it with a piece of blackened chicken, Tuesday I may have it over brown rice, Wednesday I will add some smoked salmon to it. The beauty of Bobo Gobanga is in its versatility and its price.

The seasonings can be adjusted to your taste.

There are several options for serving Bobo Gobanga. This dish can be served as a side on a plate or in a bowl. Or serve it as a main dish by pouring over your favorite grain or protein. Or go for both.  

I make a batch and bring it for lunch throughout my work week. It is very versatile so you never get bored because you can modify the meal each day.

 My favorites in no particular order is served:

In a bowl over brown rice     With roasted chicken and fried rice     With smoked salmon and quino

Mixed with  fried plantains, blackened chicken and rice    Over Wild Rice with broccoli  

Convenient and tasty.
