Did you know that coleslaw is from the Dutch word koolsla which literally means "cabbage salad".

Toppings for coleslaw come in many options like onions, Bacon, carrot, pineapple, bell peppers and even herbs. Coleslaw is eaten as a side dish that accompanies barbecued meats, French fries, fried chicken and sometimes even potato salad. You can even add coleslaw to hamburgers, top on sandwiches or layer in chili. And if you don't have cabbage you can always substitute with broccoli to make broccoli slaw! I had made pineapple coleslaw last year so today I chose to use purple cabbage instead, it gives the slaw a vibrant color and intense flavour. Purple or white cabbage, which is your favorite slaw?

Marinated Chicken One Pan Pasta

How y'all doing as 2018 nears the end of its moments? I'm happy though. It shows progress and growth. So this was one of the three courses for the Nairobi Kitchen Anniversary Giveaway competition. I love pasta, add chicken and you have a fast simple one pot meal that is delicious. The best part about one pot meals is that you will have less hassle when cleaning up and you put everything together and they cook as you wait to just serve. Fun fact: It is estimated that Italians eat over 60 pounds (27 kg) of pasta per person, per year, easily beating Americans, who eat about 20 pounds (9.1 kg) per person. Pasta is so beloved in Italy that individual consumption exceeds the average production of wheat of the country; thus Italy frequently imports wheat for pasta making. Pasta is not only delicious but nutritious as well since it has a lower glycemic index than many other staple foods in Western culture, like bread, potatoes, and rice. More reason to eat pasta everyday, if you can, that is. Enjoy today's chicken pasta dish and I hope you will enjoy it!
