Potato Asparagus alfredo pizza

M..eat...less

I hope everyone had a great Easter weekend. We had quite a relaxing time in Ocho Rios at a friend’s guest house.  The place had the most spectacular views, was so breathtaking. Went to the blue hole, dipped in the ocean, had breakfast by the pool with lovely sea views and finally took in the last few hours of racing at Dover raceway.  Now after all that fun its back to reality and another blog post. And yes my friends, it’s another pizza.

Curry coconut seafood n dumplings

Something smells fishy...

This recipe has been in our family since 2007. There was a time where we were making this every Sunday. My cousin in NY looks forward to this dish every thanksgiving, it’s his favorite and for good reason. Who would not love a bowl of your favorite seafood simmered in a creamy curry coconut sauce? And it’s all thanks to a lunch my mother had at the Four Season’s hotel.

Foil roasted fish

 

Something smells fishy... 

I will admit I stole this recipe from my aunt, “Miss set it and forget it“. This lady uses any excuse she can to throw food in the oven and leave it there until it’s ready. Especially for reheating, I often shake my head as she warms leftovers in foil for 20 minutes in the oven as opposed to using the perfectly working microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds….sigh…to each his own. In any case I’m not complaining, because I got this fish recipe as a result of her insanity (or genius).

JJ’s Grilled bun n cheese

Independence Month!

In Jamaica, all year round but especially in Easter time, a delicious snack consumed is bun and cheese.  Now that I think about it, we Jamaicans like to slap cheese on everything, bun, bulla, bread, crackers, even in patties. And the cheese I’m referring to is the thick, salty, cheddar ‘tastee’ Jamaican cheese. When you think of Jamaica and you think of cheese, this comes to mind.
