Clay Oven Party

We recently had a bunch of people over to let them see how the clay oven works.  Some of the people from partner organizations or our community might want to try building one someday since it is cheaply made from local materials.  This gave them an opportunity to see how it works and what you can make in it.

We started out removing the coals from the oven and sweeping the floor clean.

Then, we made pita bread.

A couple pizzas (this was new for some people - Ugandans don't really eat cheese).

Although people arrived little by little, we kept adding guests throughout the day.

Here is a picture of some of the things we made (from left to right): sweet potatoes, pita bread, and regular loaves of bread.  We also baked eggs, bananas, and after everyone left and the oven was cooling off, I made granola.

Everyone left satisfied by enough food and with some leftovers to take home!
