Well, this week we went with a Caribbean theme. Do you hear the Jamaican music playing in your head?
Gary decided to make Caribbean Jerk Pork. He said he would need my help. This usually means that I clean up after him LOL -- but not this time.
I mixed up the seasonings - ginger, onion powder, nutmeg, cayenne pepper, some other kind of chili pepper, soy sauce, lime juice, -- I know there's more but just don't remember what all it was. Put this in a Ziplock bag - add some pork tenderloins - rub the seasonings in and let it sit for a couple of hours. Then bake in oven. How good does that look? And although some Jerk recipes can be spicy this was not overly so.
Miss Annette went with Cuban Red Beans and Rice. She had some Cuban seasoning - I don't know what that would be - and used it in the beans. Didn't she make this dish look pretty? It tasted yummmers!
K.C. made a dessert dish.
This is Banana Pando. It's typically served for breakfast - a cross between a pancake and a donut - thus we made up the word Pando and now I don't remember what the real name for it was. LOL It's served with Nutella. Don't you love that serving tray?
Gary put Caribbean music on Netflix for us to listen to while eating.
Guess it was all pretty good because there weren't many leftovers.
Does anyone have a challenge they want to throw at us or an old recipe they would like to see us try a new way? We're open for suggestions.
