Ten years ago I was fortunate to take a trip down to the Caribbean with a friend for a girls weekend getaway. It’s a beautiful place to visit with the perfect temperatures year-round, a rich culture and history and of course, delicious food. If you enjoy food that is just a little bit different and with a little kick, I think you’ll enjoy this recipe.

Looking for a new slow cooker? I have three of them and use them all of the time. The last two that I got…I purchased from Amazon and love them!
