One of the reasons this memory of this movie will forever be etched in our hearts is the beautiful and inspiring song/mantra titled "Hakuna Matata" which means "No Worries".Asides from this life's motivation song, the Lion King movie taught us some key lessons about Family, Love, Betrayal (we know you all are remembering Uncle Scar for this part... Lol), Manipulation (Uncle Scar has his name written over this one too. We all can agree that Scar was a mess of a creature. lol), Forgiveness, Growth (we have Simba on this one as we could see it how life outside his territory built him to be better), and Adventure.And it most definitely taught us that whatever circumstances we might be going through and whatever position we find ourselves, we should not give up and most importantly we should not forget WHO WE ARE!!!Of course, we can't forget who we are, because we (that includes you, of course) are food lovers who prepare delicious and tasty meals, and this is why we have been inspired to share with you these Lion King-themed recipes, that would keep motivating you to REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE!!!
