I have noticed coconut oil taking up more shelf space in stores recently, so when I saw this book I figured I check it out and learn a little more. The first part of the book extols the health virtues of coconut oil (easily digested, transforms to energy quickly, doesn't deposit fat in the arteries, etc.) and the beauty uses/benefits (massage oil, anti-aging, etc.). Then author Jenna Mars moves onto cooking including 5 lunch recipes (Mango Prawn Curry, Stuffed Sweet Potatoes + 3 more), 5 dinner recipes (Dill Crusted Fish, Beef and Vegetable Stew + 3 more) and 5 dessert recipes (Spiced Cardamom Cake, Chocolate Walnut Fudge + 3 more). Considering making coconut oil part of your routine, this book seems like a pretty good place to start.
