Coconut-Lime Cheesecake with Mango Coulis
This tropical-inspired mango Key lime cheesecake features a ginger-coconut crust and two divine layers topped off with a fresh mango coulis. I like to make coconut cream by adding coconut extract to whipped cream for topping the cheesecake. Top with a whipped cream dollop and toasted coconut sprinkle for even more flavor.
Ann's Fantastic Fruit Salad
This is a fruit salad my mother-in-law makes, and it is just wonderful and probably the best I have ever had. If you don't like a particular fruit, just substitute it with one that you like! Sometimes my mother-in-law uses peeled and chopped pear in this recipe, you can use pomegranate seeds, mandarin oranges...just whatever seasonal fruit is available to you, it's a very forgiving recipe and completely full of vitamins.
Tropical Salad with Pineapple Vinaigrette
An easy salad to make with a bag of salad greens, pineapple, bacon bits, nuts and toasted coconut. Use fresh pineapple, if you can, and substitute toasted almonds for the macadamia nuts, if desired.
