This sounds delicious! I bookmarked it.

My daughter wanted to try cooking w/ plantain so I'm checking out the plantain recipes. (Ever since my kids were little, I'd let them pick out a food we knew nothing about, every-now-and-then,-usually in the produce section- to bring home. THEN we'd figure out how to cook it!)

We need to go the Caribbean someday...we tend to like their recipes! So many stem from that produce section!!!
