Mango Fried Rice
Ingredients
- 2 cups of chicken stock
- Seasoning cubes
- 3 slices of mango cubed
- 1 cup of rice
- 1 cup of chopped vegetables
- 1 scotch bonnet pepper

Preparation
Wash your rice and bring to boil on medium heat with very little water as you are still going to cook it in chicken stock.Once the rice is slightly soft and the initial water has dried up, reduce the heat and pour in the chicken stock and cook till the chicken stock is all absorbed and has dried up. The chicken stock if freshly made will have some oil from the chicken so your rice does not need oil.Increase the heat and stir in the chopped vegetables and pepper.

Add your seasoning cube.Finally stir in your cubed mango and serve warm with any protein of your choice. I’d say chicken but it’s up to you.

Stillness isn’t always about stopping — sometimes it’s about noticing.
The quiet scratch of a pen, the warmth of a candle, the space between thoughts.
Writing things down doesn’t fix everything, but it helps you see what matters.
Each word becomes a small act of care — a way to meet yourself where you are.

The air feels different, the light moves slower, and the noise fades into something softer.
Nature doesn’t rush you — it reminds you to breathe, to notice, to belong.
Let the sunlight through the trees be your reminder that calm is always waiting, just beyond the door.

Movement doesn’t have to be intense to matter.
A slow stretch, a deep breath, a quiet pause before the day begins.
It’s the kind of motion that reminds your body it’s safe to soften.
When you start the morning by reconnecting with yourself, everything else follows with more ease.
Let the first movement of the day be gentle — it sets the tone for everything that comes after.

Before the day begins, there’s a moment that belongs only to you.
The quiet pour of water, the scent of honey, the flicker of a candle.
It’s not about productivity — it’s about presence.
These small rituals remind you that calm isn’t found; it’s made.
Start the morning by noticing the ordinary and letting it feel enough.
