This recipe is great because it incoporates peanut candy bars bought in Belize.  I have seen these everywhere in the country and they can be bought at any local super-market.  They are so versatile because you can break the bars up into smaller pieces and put them in your home-cooked meals.

As well as being a good source of protein, it also adds crunch and texture to food.  Moreover, the sugar in the bar caramelises once it is cooked adding more taste to the whole meal.

This is another recipe for the frustrated local ex-pat who tells me over and over again that there is nothing to cook in Belize!   For the overseas reader, probably any peanut brittle/candy bar can be used in this recipe.

This is yummy mixed in with minced beef and formed into little cakes;
