This book is to showcase the various types of food we eat during school break in Kanvilli Nuriya Primary School.

First we have the 'waakye'. It is a food prepared using rice and beans mixed together. We eat it with stew.

We also have a delicious local meal we called 'wasawasa'. It is a popular food eaten in Dagbon.

It is also eaten in some west African countries such as Burkina Faso.

'Wasawasa' is made from dried yam peelings called 'jaling', which have been grounded into flour and steamed.

It is mostly eaten with spicy sauces and sometimes ganished with cooked beans.

We also have the 'yama'. Yama is also prepared using maize flour.

It is also eaten with spicy grounded groundnut powder mixed with salt and pepper.

Then, we also have our favourite called 'nyombeika'. It is also eaten in Burkina Faso. It is prepared using bean leaves mixed with grounded maize.

It is very nutritious because of the bean leaves. We love to eat it with shea butter oil.

Let me end my story and eat my fried yam before going back to class.
