Bahamian Baked Johnny Cake

In some regions, “johnny cakes” are small, flat griddle cakes. In The Bahamas, Johnny Cake is baked. Serve your Johnny Cake warm with butter or jam as a breakfast treat or a snack, or enjoy it as a side dish with stew or soups. Recipe is from a Facebook group.

Aromatic Bahamian Conch Chowder

According to The Florida Keys Cookbook, where I found this recipe, the Bahamians held the conch in mystical regard, believing its consumption enhanced male potency. They brought the recipe with them when they immigrated to the Florida Keys.

Bahamian Pina Colada

A little twist on the well-known Pina Colada. You can also buy a Pina Colada mix and add the Coconut rum to it.

Bahamian Peas and Rice

Various versions of this dish are made throughout the Caribbean. You could easily make this a vegetarian dish by omitting the bacon. 1 teaspoon dried basil and 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme may be substituted for the fresh herbs. From the Barbecue Bible.
