Recipe Created By: Kevin Towle

Ingredients

2/3 cup small pearl tapioca
1 cup water
2 cups So Delicious® Dairy Free Vanilla Coconutmilk Beverage
1/4 tsp salt
1 banana
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 mangos, cut into bite size pieces
2 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp lime Juice
1 kiwi sliced

Directions

Soak small pearl tapioca in the water for 30 minutes in a 1 1/2 quart saucepan. Do not drain tapioca after soaking.

Add coconut milk, banana, sugar, salt and vanilla to a blender and blend for 1 minute.

Add the coconut milk mixture into the saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered, whisking, for approximately 10-15 minutes. Set aside and let cool down before refrigerating.

In a large non-stick frying pan take 3/4 of the mango, lime juice and honey and heat over medium to soften the mango and blend the flavors. Set aside and cool down before refrigerating.

Assemble the layers into serving glasses alternating the tapioca with the mango mixture. Top with the remaining mango pieces and some kiwi slices.

Notes

This tropical dessert is so easy and quick to put together besides being so good for you. It’s light on sweetness but packs a lot of tropical flavors.
