Coconut and fruit!

[AdrienneD]

hello all!

I am so proud of myself right now!

Today I had my very FIRST raw coconut! And I must say..I loved it. We bought two a week or so ago, and tonight we finally cracked them open..which was almost as much fun as eating it.

I blended up some of the meat with the milk, diced up the rest along with a nice chopped apple, mixed it all in a bowl and VOILA! Absolutely delicious!

I have been having simple meals for the past month, so this was a nice little treat. I love that it's still simple, but seems so decadent.

Has anyone else tried raw coconut with fruit? What else would be delicious? I only used half (5 oz) of the meat, so I've got lots left for tomorrow...

How would frozen banana chopped be with?

You can blend it with frozen banana to make ice cream! Check this thread:

Young Coconuts are the Best.

Oh! thank you both!

I have about 20 pounds of frozen banana....so I think I know what I'll be making haha

The recipes look interesting, but I personally don't like to put so many ingredients in one thing. I'd gladly eat eat all that goes into the recipe..but if I could separate them all into their own little bowl spread out in front of me haha It's a mental thing for me.

Thanks again!
