Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Do you ever just want a taste of something sweet, but don't want to have to visit the calorie confessional the next day? I love desserts that are simple to make, yet are low in calories and fat. This pudding is light and refreshing, and the coconut and date combination is very tasty. Overall, it's not very sweet, so you might need to up the sweetener if you prefer. The finished dish can be seen at http://28cooks.blogspot.com Coconut Date Pudding 1/2 c dates, finely chopped 1/4 c flake coconut 1 c soymilk 1 c coconut milk 1/2 tsp vanilla 1 T pure maple syrup or honey 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/4 c flour Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Whisking well, bring to a boil. Boil for an additional 2-3 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator for an hour, then serve, garnished with coconut. Enjoy!

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 This sounds really yummy but I'm not sure how it can be low calorie with the coconut milk? I thought coconut milk was one of the big diet offenders (I sadly resist the curries at Thai restaurants for that reason)?

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 love coconut...sounds yummy going to make this over the weekend! have you seen the Cocochia mix? It's some ancient seed (I actually think it's the seed that Chia Pets grow) with coconut, I have run out of it and only found it at a holistic Doc'c store back in Arkansas! But it's pretty yummy, would be good in this recipe I think! bring on the coconut recipes : ) melissa p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
