What's Cooking? Cerviche

My genius work partner at the school, Mrs. Chan, the principal, had the brilliant idea to prepare a healthy snack with some of our goods from the garden.  We decided on cerviche so we could use cilantro and tomatoes that we grew.  The kids each chipped in $1 BZD ($0.50 USD) to help cover the other ingredients for the dish.  

Here is the recipe we used!

  • About half a pound of boiled shrimp
  • 2 cups diced ripe tomatoes
  • 1 large onion diced
  • 1 bunch cilantro chopped
  • 1 habaƱero pepper minced (more or less to taste)
  • Juice from 5 limes
  • 1 tsp salt (to taste)
Simply toss everything together, and enjoy with fresh tortilla chips!  
Our afternoon snack

Love always, 
Jess

P.S.  Try not to tear up when you bite into a huge chunk of habaƱero because the children must know YOU ARE NOT A WHIMP.
