Which of these Amazing Coconut Recipes will you try first?
Two big days are coming up: Cinco de Mayo and Mother’s Day. These are both fun holidays that I’m looking forward to, and like a good blogger, I should dedicate this week’s recipe roundup to one of them. The problem is, every good blogger has already done that! Do you really want to see another Mexican or brunch roundup this week, or do you want to see something different?
I’m hoping you answered “something different” or else you’re about to be sorely disappointed. Since I’m always behind (or ahead of?) the times, I’ll bring you Mexican food in a few weeks when you least expect it! Today, let’s talk about something completely different: Coconut.
18 Coconut Recipes to Make at Home
I love coconut! Coconut cake, coconut curry, or anything with a piña colada in the name is OK by me. That’s why I’m bringing you a whole bunch of coconut recipes today, and I sure hope you like them! {I also have a big fat giveaway at the end of this post if you’d like to enter to win a DSLR camera and lens!}

I happened onto this post looking for something completely different, discovered the list of coconut recipes (I’ve been on a coconut kick this past week!) and THEN saw you’re DSLR giveaway — now, if you had any idea at all how much I need that camera, you’d just call the whole thing off and have it shipped immediately to me same-day delivery! :D

delish! Am with you on loving coconut and you put together such a varied collection. Those shrimp are calling to me and all the sweet treats have caused me to gain a few pounds just by looking.
Good call on not doing what everyone else is doing. But just the same, happy cinco de mayo. Betting there’s a margarita or two in your future :-D
Andi says
Hi, Liz! It’s easy to make “varied” collections when you’re scatterbrained like me ;) I’ll have you know that I just had a margarita tonight. April 30th is close enough.
Liz says
Olé :-D
