fresh Toasted Coconut anyone?

I've been realizing how I pulled cereal off our store shelves, without a thought of just how easy it was .  Now, even tho we get into PAP occasionally, cereal is expensive and not always available.

Granola is better anyway:) Just  takes a little more work.

I was able to get about 8 coconuts from the market, and here is the process:

1. slam the coconut onto the concrete to break them apart

2. remove the meat from the shell

3. grate the meats

4. Toast the grated coconut

Add to granola, no bake cookies, natural snacks, etc etc.  

raw... toasted
