Meet Althea

Hi I’m Althea. Welcome to my blog. I have a real passion for cooking, especially Guyanese food. I was born and raised in Georgetown, Guyana.

Pumpkin and Shrimp. In Guyana the shrimp used in this recipe is a tiny shrimp variety called “white belly” shrimp. In the US salad shrimp is the closest substitution. I can’t find raw (uncooked) Salad shrimp where I live so I just use regular shrimp. Tonight I went big with jumbo shrimp or prawns. This dish is so simple yet so delicious. I used my pumpkin & tomatoes recipe and added the shrimp. Come to my stories to see how it’s done and later my highlights. ⁣

It’s a roti and fish stew (or is it stew fish 🤔😆😉) kind of night in my house. It’s still cold and dreary in my corner of the world so some good ole Guyanese comfort food it is. But since I’m on a @Whole30 round I made my meal #whole30compatible by swapping out the roti for some sautéed veggies. Swipe to see what’s on MY plate. This is how I rock my #Whole30 when my family is not doing it with me. This is how I balance my traditions around food, my culture and my desire for good health!⁣
