Method
Preparation Steps
Roasting the Coconut and Pineapple
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the shredded coconut on a baking sheet and roast for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Remove and let cool. On the same baking sheet, add the diced pineapple and roast for about 10-12 minutes until caramelized. Remove and let cool.
Assembling the Salad
In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, roasted pineapple, red bell pepper, and chopped cilantro.
Making the Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Serving
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Top with the roasted coconut and serve immediately.
