If you love plantains, you will love this dish! 8 Ripe Plantains. 1/2 stick of Butter. 3-4 Teabags or loose tea. (optional) Salt and Pepper to taste. Peel and Slice plantains, cover with water add tea either in bags or tied in cheesecloth. choose a tea that you love the flavor of. It will infuse into the plantains, Rooibos will give a nice smoky flavor excellent with BBQ or Jamaican dishes! Any tea you love will work. Drain, mash, add half of the butter, salt, and pepper. Allow to cool. On a large sheet of Plastic wrap. Roll mashed plantains into approximately 2 inch cylinder shape and refrigerate. When chilled cut into 1/4-1/2 inch discs. Heat frying pan with butter, add the discs and brown on both sides! Salt and Pepper! You can prepare the cylinder a day or two ahead. I will tell you if I am boiling anything I will add a tea ball to the water. It's great with potatoes, rice, Quinoa. Many (teas) are not actually tea at all, but are herbs. If you start using some of these teas you will open your world of flavors! Depending what you're serving, you can have a sweeter tea, savory, or smoky.I have noticed if I'm making mashed potatoes, the russet potatoes absorb more of the flavor. Serves 4 Enjoy! Plantains can help lower blood pressure, prevent and treat ulcers,prevent constipation, decrease the risk of heart disease!

Cauliflower Crust Pizza

Cauliflower Crust Recipe 1 recipe of Cauli-Rice (recipe below) 1 egg 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella 1 TBS. Seasoning of your choice 1/4 tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. fresh ground pepper Toppings of your choice, tomato, pesto or Alfredo sauce, cheese, precooked meats* & precooked veggies* Preheat oven to 450F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. It is important to get the rice as dry as possible so that there won’t be extra moisture in the crust which will prevent it from crisping up properly. In a medium bowl combine the dry Cauli-Rice, egg, 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella, seasoning, salt & pepper and mix to combine well. Press the cauliflower mixture into an even thickness on the prepared pan, either into a round or rectangular shaped pizza. I kept the crust pretty thin, about 1/4-inch thick. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the crust is firm and golden brown. Remove the pan from the oven and turn off the oven and turn on the broiler and move the rack to up close to the broiler. Top the cooked crust with sauce, cheese and toppings of your choice. Place under the broiler until the cheese is bubbly and melted. The toppings I Used on this pizza was Jerked Chicken (marinated in Jabberwocky Smooth Jerk) Equal parts Sweet Molasses Papasauce, and Jabberwocky Smooth Jerk. Caramelized onions. 1 Avocado Grated Cheddar Cheese and Mozzarella Cheese Salt and Pepper on the Avocado Cauliflower-Rice Jabberwocky Smooth Jerk Step 1, 1 head fresh Cauliflower Remove the leaves and hard center core of the cauliflower. Cut into florets. Wash and then allow the cauliflower to dry completely. (You want the cauliflower completely dry and you will NOT be adding any water when cooking, this helps to cut down on the boiled cauliflower taste and smell.) Once dry, fill the bowl of a food processor about half full and using the chopping blade and the pulse action, process the cauliflower until it looks like the size of grains of rice.Spread Cauliflower onto baking sheet and turn oven to 150 and allow to dehydrate for 1 1/2-2 hours. Fluff up the Cauli-Rice with a fork and if desired add a pat of butter, salt & pepper. You can use just like this or create a pizza crust from it!
