A great little cookbook that will give you the taste of Cuba without the plane ticket， COVID tests and wearing a mask your entire vacation。。。lol。 I am also allergic to ham and as that is on pretty much every buffet down there （my kosher and halal friends were vegetarians for the week！）， you can substitute chicken in the recipes in this book easily with chicken for any pork-based recipes if you need to。 The recipes are easy to make and yummy to eat: highly recommended。
