Strawberry Coconut Macaroons

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

It should be stated first, I don’t like coconut. I hate the texture. So making coconut based macaroons seems pretty ridiculous. But by the grace of a failed school project for my daughter’s preschool class I had an abundance of shredded coconut left over and unable to think of any other way to use it, I tried these thinking well I can give them to my neighbor or my daughter’s teachers. No way these are leaving my house.
I love these little pink balls of heaven. The coconut is so finely processed in the food processor that it doesn’t really resemble coconut. The flavor is sweet without being too sweet. I followed the recipe exactly and I loved them. Perfect with a tall glass of iced tea and a good novel for summer reading.

These were great, even though I forgot about the salt until just as I was putting them in the oven (don’t forget, they’d be better with the salt). I skipped the sugar since my coconut was really sweet already. I will mention that my food processor is on the average to small side, so I ended up dicing my strawberries, pulsing quickly once or twice and then mixing by hand very quickly and haphazardly, stopping before the mixture was homogeneous.
