Stacked Fruit Dessert with Coconut Date Drizzle


Dates have become a favorite treat around here. Today we decided to put our Young Thai Coconut to use with them and came out with a delicious coconutty drizzle sauce.

1/2 C YT Coconut Meat
1 C YT Coconut Water
6 Medjool Dates, pitted

Open YT coconut and pour water into a jar. Measure out one cup and pour into a bowl.
 Pit dates and soak in coconut water while you scrape out the coconut meat.
Measure 1/2 C Coconut meat. Transfer all 3 ingredients into a blender and blend on high until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides when needed. Drizzle over any fruit!
Here it is with sliced apple, banana, and blueberries.

Cutie Pumpkins

This was another fun Halloween idea. I know it's past for this year, but here's for the next year. My kids got these in their lunches and also gave them to their teachers at school.
1 bag of Cuties or Clementines
Plastic wrap
Green Gift Ribbon
Permanent Marker
Scissors
Cut off a 12x12 piece of plastic wrap. Place a cutie in the middle. Tie at the top with ribbon. Cut off the top so only an inch is left. Curl the ribbon with scissors. Draw on a face. Cute Halloween food.

Valentines Fruit

1 Pineapple
1 lb. Strawberries

1 Heart shaped cookie cutter

Cut off the outside of the pineapple. Then cut off slices from the sides. Lay slices flat and cut out heart shapes.
Design how you like. I used a glass pie dish so I could see all the layers.
