Coconut Bacon

We all love the taste of bacon but bacon doesn’t always love us…

Hopefully, there is a few “bacon like” alternatives that can help us quench our need for delicious bacon while respecting our diet!  Today, I’m presenting you a personal favourite: Coconut Bacon!  You can easily take this same recipe and use thin slices of almonds instead if you’re not a fan of coconut.  Take note that the end result might taste a slight different, there is something with the soft texture of the coconut flakes that really remind you of real bacon while almond bacon will keep a harder, crunchier texture.

Although, both version are delicious but….. my favourite is really coconut!

Enjoy this recipe!

Sweet and Salty Maple and Walnut bars

April 23, 2012 by Ariel 1 Comment

One of the things I like the most in life is to cook sweet stuff. I don’t know why but I’m obsessed with deserts.  Clearly not something you want to indulge in too often but once in a while it’s ok to cheat!  Enjoy this terribly delicious recipe that is worth cheating on your diet.
