Jamaican Lentil Stew With Coconut

1 pot, 1 hour = simple, incredibly tasty vegetarian meal. Truly a delightful change from ordinary lentil stew or soup. Make sure you have a hunk of great bread to sop up the stew juices or you’ll end up using your fingers! Add a salad for a complete meal.

Jamaican Jerk Chicken

This is an amazing recipe. Don’t let the number of ingredients scare you off…just line up the bottles and measure!

Brigadeiro (Brazilian Docinho)

These sweets made with condensed milk and chocolate belong to that marvelous category of Brazilian “docinhos.” They are perpetual favorites with children and adults alike. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Brazilian birthday party without them and they are a huge success with Americans too.

Paçoca (Brazilian Peanut Candy)

This no-cook candy tastes somewhat like the inside of a Reese’s peanut butter cup. It can be eaten on its own, or crumbled as a topping for ice cream or cake. (There is also a brazilian beef dish which people in the north of the country call “paçoca”. It’s more broadly known as paçoca de pilão to distinguish it from this candy.) Manioc is also known as cassava.
