In Zimbabwe we have soup for breakfast. By soup I actually mean a sauce. The liquid part of a stew is also known as a soup. A conversation will actually be like, “I need soup on top of my rice.” An actual soup, like Butternut Squash Soup are not that popular.
The Zimbabwean soup is a tomato sauce. At the very least you need oil, onion(yellow or scallions), tomatoes and salt. It is used in all the meals for dipping bread, on top of rice or with sadza. The ingredients are similar to marinara sauce but cooked for a short time. I do sometimes make a large batch of the sauce and freeze it in batches. I do not really care for sauces but my husband(like my father) needs a sauce all the time. Am I the only one who feels like they married to someone like your father? Freezing it means I do not have to make it often.
I probably eat way too many eggs, but honestly, there are fewer things that cook quite as fast as eggs. It was the first thing I learned how to cook and my favourite type are scrambled. Poached and boiled eggs come a tied second.
