COCONUT AND LIME - I admit, I check out a lot of food blogs. It's a little vice I have. Some I check out because they post awesome looking recipes. Some have the most amazing food photography. Sometimes you find food blogs that combine both. Coconut and Lime is one of those. The recipes on her food blog are those she created herself. None of her recipes are so far out there (either in ingredient or technique) that I wouldn't want to try to make them. Her photos are especially good (sometimes she'll even post several as a 'how to' of the recipe). After every recipe she'll give you her thoughts (any tips or techniques that will help you with the recipe).
On her home page she has a list of "How To's" (How to Freeze Berries, How to Make Pizza Dough) which are great for reference. She also has a great index where you can search her recipes by category (Cupcakes, Pasta Sauce, Dips), by ingredient (have some Kiwi's left over? Search all her Kiwi recipes), by occasion (find out what to serve for Purim) and by cuisine (I want to try all the ones listed under Caribbean). And if you are looking for more than just recipes, she has a second blog called Food Maven where she posts her food related thoughts, tips and product finds. Be sure to check out her FAQ's where you'll find more about what she puts on her blog and a little about her as Coconut and Lime.
There are so many of her recipes I want to make...Taste of The Tropics Oatmeal Cookies, Mango Avocado Burger, Hot Pepper Cornbread, Pasta with Mushrooms and Caramelized Onions...actually there are so many recipes I want to try I had to stop book-marking them, I just book-marked her entire site!
Go check out Coconut and Lime here.
Thanks for the nice write up! I appreciate it!

You put the lime in the coconut, and drink them both up!

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
