product review

I snagged this carton of Silk coconut milk when I found it very on sale at Target (hence the red sticker).  I'd never had it before but it sounded fun to try.



And it was great!  It does have some added sugars and quite a bit of saturated fat due to the coconut milk, but it was a fun and tasty addition to lots of things.  It gave a hint of coconut flavor, not overwhelming or too sweet.  Beck even loved it and said "mmmm" when he drank it. :)  Some of the ways I used it: 
  • in my cereal (I mixed it with regular milk)
  • homemade coconut pudding - topped with shredded coconut of course
  • in raw oatmeal (like cereal)
  • poured over fruit crisp (recipe in previous post)
  • in greek yogurt (I like to thin it out... it's a little too thick for my likings)
Obviously there are endless ways to use it.  Had my ice-cream machine not konked out on me, I would have likely made coconut ice-cream with it... which sounds so good.  So yes, I recommend picking up a carton and trying it out!
