Coconut Oil Review and Giveaway!

October 17, 2012 by Kendra 25 Comments

As I mentioned last week, I was send a jar of  Tropical Tradition‘s gold label Virgin Coconut Oil to review.  I shared my secret to crispy fried potatoes then as well.

Keep reading to find the giveaway!

Because Coconut Oil is hard at 60 degrees, it can be used in replacement of butter, or you can warm it to 76 degrees and you will have an oil. That means you have a very versatile ingredient on your hands.

You can use the oil for frying because the heat does not cause the oil to become toxic.  I also used it a couple weeks ago in biscuits instead of butter. They came out light and fluffy!

Don’t they look yummy?

Tropical Traditions also has a recipe blog, where people have shared their coconut oil recipes. What really impressed me with that site, were the large amounts of dairy and gluten free recipes. I know that if I need to cook special for my family I would be using a lot of recipes from there.  As it is, I have already pinned several to my Kitchen Capers board on Pinterest. ๐Ÿ™‚

Sooo, that means I am going to be testing a few of them out! Maybe I will even share them with you. Well, sharing the photos that is.  ๐Ÿ˜‰

Now, on to the coconut oil giveaway!

Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil - 32 oz.

Win 1 quart of Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil!

Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer. You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website: What is Virgin Coconut Oil?

You can also watch the video they produced about Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil:

Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the advantages of buying coconut oil online. Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.

    I love coconut oil, I could mention another way to use coconut oil, but it wouldn’t be very discreet. Can you guess what it is?
    Hint, it would go well with a marriage love themed post………

    I find it so crazy to hear about the cooking side of coconut oil, because I use it for my skin and hair!!! It makes it seem like something I shouldn’t be cooking with haha, but I should definitely try it ๐Ÿ™‚

    We have a lot of coconut oil in the Philippines and we use it for cooking and a whole lot of other things. Now I am doing oil pulling with it. Lots of health benefits to gargling with it! Patsy from HeARTworks

    i absolutely LOVE this coconut oil by tropical traditions. i used it to substitute for vegetable shortening in molasses cookies and they were totally, awesomely delicious. i also use it after a bath to soothe the itching from eczema on my elbows and knees. it softens my skin and calms the craving to scratch and further irritate my skin, and it isn’t greasy at all after rubbing it on. it’s better (and cheaper) than any other store bought moisturizer i have tried.

      That’s awesome! I used to use it in the shower, but it made my towels smell funny. ๐Ÿ™‚ So I stopped using it in the shower.

    I love kale chips. I usually make them with Extra virgin olive oil, but I now use virgin coconut oil, and they are just as good if not better. You have to try this yhey are so good for you.
    1 bunch of Kale
    1T sea salt
    2-3T coconut oil
    Remove kale from stalk,tear into bit size pieces, rinse with water, dry. toss with salt and coconut oil. Put on cookie sheet in even layer, as possible. Bake at 250-300 degrees for about 30 minutes. Check for crispiness and toss often, about every 5-10 min. When crispy they are done. Eat and Enjoy.
    I like these better than potato chips!!

      I’ve had kale chips before and didn’t like them. But they were store bought and homemade is always better, so I may have to try these ๐Ÿ™‚
