"This is my familys favorite rice dish. It goes great with Jamaican Pot Roast, Roasted Pork or Chicken. You can combine your beans if you like, we like to use a combination of dry pigeon peas, black eyed peas and red kidney beans, what ever is on hand."

This was so yummy. I did have a habenero so just used a chipolte chili powder for some heat. Easy to make and just simple enought to compliment if you want it as a side to a very hot spicy meal yet good enough to have all on its own. Made for Photo Tag

It was really good. A combination that I would have never thought off. Followed the recipe step by step, no changes. Actually, I'm lying, I used black beans instead of black eye peas.

I am a very lucky lady. I recently moved to a very small town in New Brunswick, Canada with my wonderful husband who is my best friend. Very fortunate to have a cherished son, wonderful daughter in law and adorable granddaughter and cute wee grandson. We are very blessed. A big thank you to everyone that has made my recipes... hope you enjoyed them.
