Hello People, It's been a minute, I have been pretty busy these days. Will try my best not too "disappear" for too long. Edikaikong or Vegetable soup originates from the Efik People of Akwaibom and Cross River States. This soup is made with a generous amount of Vegetables which makes it one of my favorite Nigerian Soups. Ugu leaves (Fluted Pumpkin) are very low in calories and contain no saturated fats or cholesterol. Studies have shown that when the essential nutrients are not destroyed, it has the capacity to increase red blood cells within a short period of time. They are a rich source of Minerals like Iron, magnesium, potassium and vitamins K, C, E and many of the B Vitamins.
