Y'all know by now of the endless virtues of coconut oil. A couple jars - one in the kitchen and another in the bathroom - come in handy for purportedly healthier consumption and maintenance. Just Google it and take your pick from scores of uses. Trader Joe's offers a great product for a fair price.
Then there's coconut milk of the unsweetened and enriched variety. I use enough to warrant its purchase in bulk, online. With its creamy texture, it is irreplaceable when it comes to smoothies, soups and sauces. Try it. But remember our New Year's Eve béchamel fiasco?? Not to worry, though. We've got the pasta poundage in check and I always add at least one green ingredient to justify its being on the menu.
With all that said, you'd be risking the loss of an arm or two, dare you take away my EVOO. It shall forever rank in first position, when it comes to oil. Joe and I are both in the habit of buying it whenever and wherever we see flavorful versions of the Italian or Spanish variety.
Buon Appetito - It's All ♥-Healthy!
But watch those calories!
