My friend Brooke often talks about Weelicious and makes their recipes for her toddlers. I finally remembered to add it to my Google Reader, and immediately I starred a bunch of stuff.
I made these Carrot Apple Coconut Muffins a few days ago, and my entire family devoured them. They were so easy to throw together and were absolutely delicious. I'm normally not a fan of coconut, but it goes so well with the carrot and apple that you can't help but love them. They definitely didn't last long in my house!
I didn't intend to make any changes, but my grocery store only had sweetened coconut, not unsweetened - but I kind of liked the sweetness they added!

I made these as the afternoon treat for Vincent's birthday at day care. They were a hit! When I picked him up on Friday some of the kids in his class came up to me and told me they like the "treat." :-) Thanks again!
