Jerk seasoning is often used in Caribbean cuisine, but it’s easy to mix up your own to use in dinner recipes at home. For homemade jerk spice, combine garlic powder, cayenne pepper, onion powder, dried thyme, dried parsley, sugar, salt, paprika, allspice, black pepper, dried red pepper, nutmeg and cinnamon. Then spice up your dinners with this vibrant Carribean flavor!

Just when you thought halloumi couldn’t get any better, try coating slices of halloumi with oil and jerk seasoning before grilling or pan-frying. This makes for a great vegetarian burger filling or a delicious snack on its own.

Cauliflower steaks don’t have to be a dull vegetarian alternative, especially if you have the right spices! Rub your steaks with oil and coat evenly with jerk seasoning, then bake in the oven until tender and brown.
