Mouthwatering Curried Seafood from Beaches Resorts #BeachesMoms

Remember when I went to the Beaches Resort in Turks & Caicos back in October? As part of the trip, we could choose an excursion that would help us learn more about the Resort. You can see from the above photograph what I chose. Food! 

I was invited to go behind the scenes to learn the secrets of Beaches' recipe for Curried Seafood and Conch Ceviche. First, I have to tell you, we had just attended an incredible breakfast to learn about the Sandals Foundation, a non-profit that is the philanthropic arm of Sandals Resorts International. 

The Sandals Foundation seeks to help fulfill the promise of the Caribbean Community through investment in sustainable projects in education; environment and communication which improve people's lives and preserve our natural surroundings.

As #BeachesMoms attending the very first Social Media in the Sand conference, we were thrilled to participate in giving back to this wonderful community by packing with a purpose. We all filled bags and backpacks with school supplies and presented them to the foundation at breakfast. It felt great to know we were making a difference in the lives of this incredible community.

So, as I was saying, I had just eaten. A lot. How could it be that the aroma of this curry was making me hungry? When you visit the Beaches or Sandals Resorts, you'll find out for yourself that eating is just part of the experience! With 20 (yes, 20!) International restaurants on property at Beaches Turks & Caicos, the toughest decision was where to eat next!

Try your hand at making this wonderful Curry Seafood in your kitchen, but I have to tell you, there is something about eating it with your toes in the sand that's pretty hard to recreate at home!
