How does coconut fall into the diet??  Thanks.

Answer:

Coconut oil is one of the preferred cooking oils. Coconut in small amounts serves to satisfy the sweet tooth, but it’s best to buy unsweetened. Sometimes hard to find, but probably not for you, living in the garden of eden known as the bay area of California. Think of coconut as one of those natural sweeteners that provides a good shot of indigestible fiber that tends to scour out the gut. Always a good thing.

How are you this morning? Feeling better? Made your smoothie yet today? How about a shot of coconut in that? Hmm. I may do that myself today.

Got a question about ingredients? methods? Just ask. We’re here to help. And a good morning to you all. Best, Linda
