Nothing says island paradise quite like the flavors of seafood and coconut doing their own little conga line over your tongue! One of my favorite summer treats, I adore this recipe. I hope you like jammin' too! NOTE: There are actually 2 varieties of the Jammin' Dipping Sauce that I'm providing, but they honestly both taste very similar. The first is probably just a tad healthier, but of course I prefer the second version!
