PINEAPPLE & COCONUT CARROT SALAD
I enjoyed a salad like this at a tropical-inspired restaurant. I tried to get the staff to give me the recipe but had no luck. So I went home and created my own! I will sometimes drain a can of mandarin orange slices and toss those in as well. -Shirley Turpin, Williams, Minnesota

SPELT CARROT PINEAPPLE COCONUT WALNUT CAKE
This cake is always center stage on looks and taste for morning or afternoon tea. It is the kind of cake to bring people together for quality time over a cup of tea or coffee. When i know some one has had a rough week, i make them this and we talk it out over a slice and a loving smile.

SPICED WALNUT CARROT CAKE WITH PINEAPPLE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss together the carrots, walnuts, pineapple, raisins, and coconut with 1/2 cup of the flour to coat them and keep them from sinking to the bottom of the cake batter.
- Sift together the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt.
- In a mixer with a whip attachment, mix the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy (the "ribbon" stage) then drizzle in the vegetable oil. Fold in the dry ingredients and pour over the carrot mixture. Fold carefully to blend, then pour the batter into a buttered, floured 10 by 3-inch cake pan containing a circle of parchment paper in the bottom. Bake until firm to the touch in the center, about 1 to 1 1/4 hours. Let cool on a rack and then turn out. Dust the top with powdered sugar and cut into wedges to serve.
