I was watching a movie set in Ireland last week and my mind started drifting off into food land. Wait, why hadn’t I ever prepared a traditional bangers and mash? It’s such an easy recipe to whip up and these days it’s really easy to find healthy, organic sausage which Kenya loves.
In no time flat, I had this dinner ready for Kenya and a bunch of his little friends. The best part was that I didn’t have to slave in the kitchen for hours preparing it and I already had most of the ingredients in my fridge. It was fun watching the kids dip their pieces into the mashed potatoes and then chow down. And I will say that mashed potatoes, even healthy ones like these, are usually an easy sell with kids of any age.
