This meal was requested by one of our viewers and over the next few months I’m hoping to make more meals that are Non- Traditional Newfoundland recipes so I can help you continue enjoying making your own home cooked meals. I will continue making our Traditional Newfoundland recipes so please keep in mind when sending in your requests they will also include our cultural foods.
This meal is quick and easy to make and I kept in mind that people don’t have a lot of time to cook, so if you like to do the prep work and after put in your slow cooker to complete. Then when you get home from work all you would need to do is your rice and that’s only 5 to 10 minutes.
