CUBAN SUMMER FIESTA!

I developed a taste for Cuban food back when I was a flight attendant and traveling all the time. This recipe really takes me back to my layovers in Miami where I got to enjoy all the authentic flavors of the city's varied cultures. So delicious! Back then I couldn't wait to go through Miami so I could grab some good food... and now I can't wait to make this again right at home!
