Tropical Holiday Recipes: Appetizers, Drinks, and Sides

On this weeks edition of Tropical Holiday Recipes I'll be giving you a collection of my favorite appetizer, drink, and side recipes. I love green beans so there are several recipes for them, also if you look back to my early posts on the blog you'll find an additional recipe for sweet potatoes fried with cinnamon and coconut milk. Now on to the recipes:

1) Hoisin Green Bean Salad 

 

This recipe calls for agave but if you don't have that on hand honey will work fine

2) Sriracha and Wasabi Deviled Eggs 

 

3) Creamy Coconut Eggnog 

 

4) Coconut Almond Green Beans 

 

This is a super quick and simple recipe with just 4 ingredients and 2 steps. 

5) Guava Lime Coolers 

 

6) Pumpkin Butter 

 

This is great on lots of things but is particularly good on the famous Kings Hawaiian Rolls. 

7) Ohana Green Beans 

 

This is a Disney recipe from their Polynesian resort and popular with kids. 

8) Pumpkin Sangria 

 

9) Pumpkin Spice Plantain Chips 

If you don't have the palm sugar the recipe calls for organic or light brown sugar is fine. 

10) Tropical Sweet Potato Bake 

 

Well there they are to inspire you. As I said if you check out this earlier entry Adventures in Island life you'll find my personal favorite sweet potato recipe where they are fried with cinnamon and coconut milk. Sweet Potatoes with a tropical twist.  Next week will be the last in the series and contain a collection of tropical dessert recipes, until then Aloha from Maui.
