Cayman Fish

Tonight my husband cooked me dinner. He cooked me a dish that he first had in the Cayman Islands. Captain Marvin served it to my husbands family on the beach after an excursion at sting ray city. I was a little worried this dish wouldn't be good because we all know food tastes better on vacation and maybe all this was was a fond memory for my husband. But this dish is quick, easy, and very unpretentious. 

Can't you picture this dish simmering in a pot on a cayman woman's stove? 

Warm 4 tbs olive oil in sauté pan 

Caramelize 1 chopped onion 

Along with 2 chopped bell peppers

Add 3 tbs pickapeppa sauce*

Add 3 tbs ketchup 

Add 1 Tsp salt 

Add 1/2 cup water 

Add 2 tsp honey 

Then add 4 mahi mahi filets (6oz each) or any white fish you'd like. These should be cut in half before you add to pan. Then reduce sauce for about 15 minutes or until fish cooked. 

Then add 2 tbs fresh lime juice and salt and pepper to taste. 

Serve with rice, some steel drum music, and a drink with an umbrella in it and your night is made! 

Power Pancakes

Our BFFs introduced us to "powerlifting" pancakes about a year ago. They are high in protein, low in fat, low in sugar, and gluten free. Basically they are a delicious healthy breakfast. 

Ingredients

• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 ripe banana
• 2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 large eggs (or 4 egg whites)
• 1/2 cup low fat free cottage cheese
• 3 tablespoons unsweetened rice milk

Cook like you would normal pancake until golden brown. You could also add my favorite, chocolate chips, peanut butter, or berries as well. And for all you banana haters out there, don't worry you can't even taste them. Oh, and don't forget to use organic pure maple syrup! If you haven't tried the stuff you will fall in love! So much better than all that processed thick corn syrupy stuff. Good luck and enjoy!
