Who is the chef?

Tayo Oredola is a, Nigerian born, US citizen, food photographer, recipe developer and blogger of keto and low carb African-inspired recipes! Tayo began quite sceptical with the keto diet in order to loose some weight a few years ago. But she noticed that her health problems such as migraines, nausea, joint pain and elevated blood glucose levels of a pre-diabetic disappeared. That was when she went full time low carb. Listen to her unbreakable passion for African dishes on the episode!

    Wanna know what “Efo Riro” is?

    “Efo Shoko'”(Lagos spinach) or ‘Efo Tete” (African spinach) are the names of the local spinach Nigerians use for this dish.

    Efo Riro is then the final dish, which is a delicious, healthy and easy to make spinach stew.

    It is popular among the Yoruba tribe but variations can be found in other West African countries like Nigeria, Ghana, and Cameroon.
