About this deal

The Caribbean is a region that has long been associated with exoticism, relaxation, and the good life. It is a place where pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and lush vegetation blend together in perfect harmony. As an incredibly versatile ’nut’, coconut has many uses in cooking and nothing goes to waste when it comes to Caribbean cuisine; coconut milk, cream, water, oil, sugar, flour… the list goes on. The ‘meat’ and milk are used in both sweet and savoury dishes like rice and peas, curries and cakes. Coconut sugar is an alternative to refined sugar for baking and you can use coconut flour for gluten free bakes. Make half of your plate pelau and half vegetables like coleslaw or watercress, then top with two slices of avocado.

Other research indicated that the Mediterranean diet may protect against certain cancers, including colorectal cancer, and the loss of nerve cells in Parkinson’s disease ( 1, 8). Summary

Little information is available on Caribbean avocado varieties like Choquette and Hall. Yet, avocado — also called zaboca or pear in the Caribbean — is generally rich in monounsaturated fats and oleic acid, and it may reduce heart disease risk by lowering LDL (bad) cholesterol ( 14, 15). Many of the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet have been attributed to high amounts of olive oil ( 1, 8, 9, 11). However, scientific research suggests that tying the health benefits of a diet to any single food or nutrient is misleading. The overall eating pattern matters most ( 2, 11, 12). The Mediterranean diet is rich in leafy green vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, and whole grains. Extra virgin olive oil is a fundamental component of the diet ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). Plus, ground provisions are good sources of essential nutrients — even in comparable or greater amounts than some whole grains in the Mediterranean diet, such as brown rice.Not just for fruit salads, fruits like papaya, pineapple and mango are used in savoury dishes too. Before it’s ripe, the papaya is treated like a vegetable, similar to a squash, and is often stuffed and baked or used to make chutneys and relishes. Grilled fruit is also a favourite dish in the Caribbean, with a mixture of chopped fruit sprinkled with brown sugar and cinnamon then grilled on a barbecue.

Sweet potato, cassava (yucca), dasheen (taro), eddoes, yam, and potato are eaten in meals like provision and saltfish and as a complement to game meat dishes, such as stewed agouti (a type of rodent), manicou (opossum), or other stewed meats and fish. Furthermore, studies show that different foods can provide similar nutrients to those found in the Mediterranean diet ( 3). With a melting pot of inspiration and flavours, Caribbean cooking can put a truly tasty twist on your go-to recipes. From jerk seasoning to savoury fruits, there’s plenty of choice to help you discover your new favourite dish. You can eat moderate amounts of fish, poultry, and dairy, while you should limit or avoid red meat, eggs, added sugar, saturated fat, and red wine ( 3).Adapting diets to fit your local cuisine is a fundamental principle that guides my personal and professional approach to nutrition and health, so I confidently incorporate cultural foods and dishes into a balanced diet. Keep these food lists in mind if you’re interested in the standard Mediterranean diet ( 3). Foods to eat Highly processed foods (fast food, processed sausages): 1–2 servings per week, up to 4 servings per month Tubers are underrated gluten-free sources of complex carbs like dietary fiber and starches. They also boast anti-inflammatory properties and may help lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels ( 18, 19, 20).

I’ll be honest, I was already full by the time layer one was done, but we soldiered on: time for some sweet treats. The large, soft plain scones had a little cinnamon flavour, which was complimented well by the strawberry and passionfruit jams. Regardless of whether you put the cream or jam on first (jam, people – don’t come at me), it tasted divine. The scones are joined by indulgent mini rum cakes, which were delightfully sweet; a moist blondie, which I couldn’t get enough of; and of course, a mini mince pie. Oleic acid — the main monounsaturated fatty acid in olive oil — is said to give this oil most of its health properties ( 9, 11, 13). Every effort to admit latecomers will be made at a suitable break in the event, but admission cannot always be guaranteed. Notably, sugary foods, red meat, and highly processed foods are all common in the Western diet and — if eaten in excess — associated with an increased risk of chronic disease ( 4).Other Mediterranean diet foods are easily adaptable to a Caribbean style of eating. Enjoy local varieties of these foods as suggested: Although emerging research indicates that saturated fats aren’t as harmful as once thought, this diet likely still helps you limit your intake of unhealthy types of saturated fat ( 7, 8, 9). How to follow the Mediterranean diet Enjoy 1–2 slices of whole grain bread with 2–4 tablespoons of crushed avocado and a boiled egg for added protein. Turtle Bay’s bottomless brunch is available everyday from 10am until 3pm and 5pm on Sundays. Planning your day around the experience is ideal due to Turtle Bay’s convenient locations on the high street. Offering an experience ideal for a mid-week celebration at lunch or an early evening meet up on the weekend.

Make half your plate non-starchy vegetables like sautéed bok choy (also called patchoi), a quarter of your plate curried kingfish, and a quarter ground provisions of your choice, such as dasheen or cassava. Avocados are a seasonal fruit in the Caribbean. When they’re out of season, consider using other sources of oleic acid, such as avocado oil, olives, olive oil, and walnuts ( 16). The promoter, venue management and DesignMyNight accept no responsibility for any personal property. In fact, foods grown and eaten in the Caribbean are abundant in key nutrients found in the Mediterranean diet. As such, you can comfortably swap ingredients based on seasonality, cost, and preference.Here are some key swaps you can make for a Caribbean twist on the Mediterranean diet. Ditch the olive oil for avocado
