Here is another addition to my Jamaican food recipe feature and it just happens to be one of my favourite vegetarian BBQ foods. Simply shove a few of these on the barbie or under the grill and you have yourself a perfect summery treat. This simple dish is quick to make and will make any mouth happy with its bursts of Carribean flavour! Serve it up for the family with dinner, at your next BBQ or just to have on their own as a snack - you really can't go wrong! 

This is another recipe taken from my latest Nourish Magazine spread which you can find in Coles, Woolworths and news agencies across Australia. Alternatively if you're not in Australia, you can make sure you're subscribed to the website to receive a new recipe from this feature in your mail box each week!
