Underwater World

Today was a rainy day so we decided to head to Underwater World! Joey had no idea where we were going and when we arrived we covered his eyes until we we inside the walkway aquarium! When he saw what was around him he was so excited! Jumping up and down and just over the moon! 

YUM!

On a recent trip to Chamorro Village we ate at Jamaican Grill and had an awesome appetizer! Chicken Kelaguen.

SInce not everyone can dine on such an awesome meal I attached a recipe I found that should be pretty close to the real thing!

Finadene Sauce

• 1 cup soy sauce
• 1 cup lemon juice
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 5 hot peppers, finely chopped

Chicken

• 1 whole broiler-fryer chicken, cut up
• 1 fresh coconut
• lemon juice
• 4 green onions, finely chopped
• 3 hot peppers, finely chopped
• 4 -6 pita bread

Directions:

• Mix soy sauce with lemon juice. Add finely chopped onion and peppers. Let sit a few days in the refrigerator to let the flavors blend.
• Open the coconut and discard the liquid inside. Grate the coconut meat. After the coconut is grated, pick it up in your hands and squeeze it over a bowl to collect the milk. Mix the milk with an equal amount of lemon juice and chill.
• Marinate the chicken in the Finadene sauce overnight. Grill/broil the chicken, basting with the sauce. After it is done, cool the chicken, debone and shred it.
• Mix the green onions, peppers, and coconut meat to the chicken. Slowly mix the coconut milk and lemon juice into the chicken, stirring well.
• Serve warm on fried home made tortillas. 
• Optional: Fruit salad on the side

Dadi Beach

So simple

 Simply Cooking 101 is such an inspirational page! She has no limits to her talent and breaks things down so the average home chef can recreate her "Home cooking meets TV food."  Tonight we tried two main dishes and they were such a hit.
First up her: Stuffed Meatballs in a Parmesan crisp bowl (The bowl was a failure due to the lack of Parm.)

MMM.

The second dish from Simply Cooking 101 was the Almost Margharita Pizza Rolls. These were amazing. Every ingredient I love all rolled into one!

He wanted s'more!

  

 In the grocery store Joey said the only way he eats marshmallows is if they are with a piece of chocolate and a cracker. I told him I'd show him a new way! Its pretty self explanatory!
