Pumpkin Soup with Shrimp


Ever wondered what a typical saturday afyernoon is jamaica was like? Try this soup and you'll not not only get the feeling of sitting under a breadfruit tree in your backyard, listening to some sweet reggae, but you might never actually want to try soup any other way. I vividly remembered every saturday after while laying, the scent of the partially cooked pumpkin soup with lift me up and transport me to the kitchen. I'd stand there, counting down the time until its done and once finished, I would start eating before the scorcthing tenperature decreases. I gaurantee you, if this isnt the best soup youve ever had,you did something wrong :).

Banana Raisin Bread



The greatest part about making a banana bread is that, you don’t need a fancy mixer! A fork to whisk the eggs and a sturdy spoon to mix the batter are all you need. The sugar amount is flexible, (based on the individual) and although he original recipe calls for a cup of white sugar, most people, including me, do just fine with 3/4 of a cup and many are happy with a 1/2 cup.

You can toss in a cup of raisins as I did, different kinds of nuts, or chocolate if thats what you prefer.
Most recipes have been past down from parents or grandparents, but I got mine online and tweaked it to make it a lot healthier and personal. I hope you enjoy.

Coconut Snow Balls


When you hear the word Winter, automatically snow comes to mind and thats where I got inspiration from to remake a classic Jamaican coconut dessert and put my own spin on it. If you're familiar with Jamaican Grater Cake, you'll know exactly how to make these, but one big difference is, these have to be refrigerated (that's where they solidify). This dessert is not only organic, but it's sweet and thats a win, win. Biting into one gives the same feeling as laying on a white sand beach on a Caribbean island, so I'd suggest you give this recipe a try.
