"Ever wonder why the Piña Coladas you make at home taste nothing like the ones served at your favorite tropical destination?

"I adapted a few other recipes, which called for marinating a roast overnight in mojo... and this turned out fantastic (If I do say so myself) We used this to make tacos with corn tortillas, along with home made salsa verde, queso fresco, lettuce and pico de gallo. (a Mexican style dish, but the flavors go very well together)

"These meat pies are so good, easy to make, and travel well. Be careful with the hot peppers; Scotch bonnets are super spicy. To make these kid friendly, we usually don't add the peppers until just before filling, setting aside some plain filling for the sensitive mouths. These are really good with pineapple coleslaw. I got this recipe from..."
