Dice:
Bananas
Apples
Pears
Add Raisins
Add Honey (1 tbsp)
Sprinkle Shaved Coconut (without the sugar)
My choice of coconut was based on the amount of fat, no sugar and the size of the shavings. The shavings were perfect for me because I wasn't chewing coconut. If you are looking for something sweet that won't add the extra calories on your butt, hip, stomach or thighs...try this!

This sounds yummy. Noticed the photo of the bag of unsweetened organic coconut, I'll have to look around for that. When my family lived in the West Indies all I could find in the stores was fresh grated, dried coconut, no sugar added and I really liked the flavor of it. When we got back to the USA I didn't see anything like it in my local supermarkets, all they had was just tons of that sticky sweet stuff.
ReplyDeleteFor awhile I tried using fresh coconut but what a job to crack them open and dig out the juicy white flesh of the nut, then grate it then spread it out on a sheet and dry it for a few hours at very low heat in the oven. You can imagine that I did not do that very often. LOL
If you click on the picture you can order this kind online.
ReplyDeleteI got mine at MOM's (My Organic Market)

Maybe you have a store around that sells something like that.
Thanks for stopping by!
