July 19, 2016 at 7:01 amI have purchased some amazing (but expensive) avocado oil, although I also use a lot of coconut oil. I’m wondering about making mayo with it. Have you ever worked with it?

June 6, 2016 at 12:45 amHi, I made the coconut mayo but I did not like the fact that it goes really hard in the fridge 🙁 The second recipe calls for a mixture of coconut oil and olive oil – does this mean that it will not get so hard in the fridge? also, can I add whey to it as well? Thanks!

June 5, 2016 at 10:12 amI love everything coconut and your site is one of the best. That said, I am vegan and a senior on a limited budget. I think I may be speaking for others when I say that I think you would pick up a good number of new regulars if below the recipes you post, you were to post TRIED and successful vegan alternatives. I, for one, would be uberly grateful. I often post your non vegan recipes with a * and a note to veganize. However, if people are on a limited budget, it is nice to have the vegan tweak be a tried and true tweak. For what it’s worth!! Great work , Coconut Mama! Keep it up…and hopefully expand to include us vegans! ^ – ^
