Who doesn’t love a good guacamole? It’s the perfect addition to parties and get-togethers. And when you’re stuck at home, it’s a great comfort food that satisfies your need for salty and spicy at the same time. We did a Trinidadian take on guacamole, and made a zaboca choka. In case you’re wondering, zaboca is Trini speak for avocado. Our choka is a quick and easy recipe. You’ll be astounded by the taste - it’s better than what you’ll get at any grocery store!

When it’s cold outside, we love hearty, tasty meals. Chili is a simple and effective dish that warms us up. Black bean chili in particular, is one of our favorite vegetarian dishes - it’s spiced just right, and is very filling. Being from Trinidad, we of course love all things hot. While at home, we tried a spicy take on the dish. Making chili is a great way to use those cans that you’ve stocked up on in your pantry. See inside for video, recipe, and serving suggestions.
