We've decided to combine two of the most refreshing ingredients this season and created a masterpiece. This vegan coconut ice slice is a deliciously refreshing and healthy dessert that is best served on a hot sunny day. This recipe is very easy to make and it requires very few ingredients. The main ingredients in this slice are not quite super-foods, but very good for your health and on top of that, they are yummy! Coconut is known for its cooling properties, as well as it is a great source of fibre and contains no cholesterol. Desiccated coconut is high in saturated fat, which makes it ideal as a LCHF dessert. It also comes with a great source of iron which is an important mineral for our daily functioning. Raspberries are high in vitamins, particularly vitamin C. They are a great immunity booster, high in antioxidants and great for aiding digestion. These delicious fruits are also fantastic for losing weight because they are high in dietary fibre and maganese, which is a mineral that keeps your metabolic rate high, burning more fat.
