Caribbean Pate’

Sharing my family recipes has just become more inclusive thanks to my partnership with Impossible Foods to create the Impossible Caribbean Pate’! Growing up I’ve been allergic to beef and pork most of my life. Now I’m able to enjoy some of my traditional Caribbean recipes thanks to Impossible Foods’ meat made from plants, which cooks just like ground beef and tastes amazing! Immerse yourself into our island culture! Find my recipe below and Impossible’s website at https://impossiblefoods.com/recipes/caribbean-pates-carlina-will! Happy Cooking!
