There are some movies that even if they make a 100 remakes of them, we won't stop loving them, and we won't get tired of watching them.And one such movie is the Lion King.Do we hear some "Hakuna Matata" song coming from you?Yes, we are talking about the Lion King. The movie that has been produced twice now, first in the year 1994, and later in 2019.This movie is one popular and renowned movie that cuts across all age groups despite it being an animation because even the older folks love and adore this movie!!! 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!!!
