• Plantain Canoe with Jumbo Shrimp – 3rd Day of Christmas

    On the 3rd day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, a plantain canoe with Jumbo shrimps. After making my avocado boat on the 1st day of christmas, I got inspired to go to see with another dish that still involved shrimps. I am a big shrimp lover so pardon me if you absolutely cannot stand shrimp. You can always substitute with chicken, fish, snail or whatever you want. I usually hope my recipes inspire my readers to create their own dishes. This recipe is fairly easy and is indeed a good idea for a main course if you are light weight or you can cut up the plantain into smaller bits and serve as an appetizer. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Seasons Feedings…Enjoy!
