Add to Shopping List

Instructions

  1. Peel the oranges and remove all the white pith.
  2. Working over a bowl to capture the juices, remove the orange sections. Squeeze any remaining juice from the core and membranes into the bowl with the orange sections.
  3. Taste the oranges and add a small amount (1-2 tblsp.) sugar if needed.
  4. Add coconut. Toss together.
  5. Cover bowl and refrigerate for several hours to allow the flavors to blend.

Notes

  • If blood oranges are available, use half blood oranges and half Navel oranges for a pretty effect.
  • May be made up to two days in advance and stored, well covered, in the refrigerator.
  • Leftovers keep in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 days.
