I LOVE stuffing. I decided to keep the best parts of it and toss out the squishy parts that my family can't eat. Big holiday dinners are heavy enough without bread stuffing, don't you think? If you have favorite doo-dads you love in your stuffing, toss them ...

Tastes like candy, but good for you. Not a gourmet quality treat, notice there is no waiting over the stove with candy thermometer. But a tasty way to get more coconut in your diet and the diet of your young ones. Often times, children with food restrictions feel left out ...
