Fantastic recipe. I love everything about it!


Wow! This was great! The only thing I changed was using fresh pineapples and oranges (small oranges just cut into pieces, leaving the peel on). And I served it over buckwheat groats instead of rice. I loved the coconut. Thanks for posting this great recipe.
