Coconut oil! Such a great alternative to so many cooking products and it is not only great for cooking but also great for hair and skin. To begin my journey cooking with coconut oil I made a simple stir fry recipes with items I found lying around waiting to be used...

Chop garlic, yellow onion, broccoli, carrot, white mushrooms, snap peas, red pepper, spinach and basil

Gather your flavoring ingredients, I used Blue Hill Farm Honey (Tarrytown, NY), Raw and Vegan Coconut Butter and Organic Ginger

Add one scoop of coconut butter to frying pan

When in doubt... throw a fried egg on it #2!

I mixed it up a bit when it came to a stir fry dinner tonight.  And let me tell you throwing a fried egg on top of almost anything is pretty delicious.
You will need:
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Sea Salt
1.5 cups of broccoli
7 pieces of asparagus
1 orange pepper
3 scallion onions
1 tbsp of pressed ginger
several pieces of sundried tomatoes
2 eggs
1/2 cup pistachios

Add olive oil to medium skillet on medium low heat and add ginger.
Chop your veggies while pan is heating up.  Chop up broccoli, quarter the asparagus, slice the orange pepper, dice the scallions. 
Add chopped broccoli and diced scallions.
Then add asparagus, sundried tomatoes and sea salt.
Let cook and stir often for 5 mins.
Crack one egg into the skillet and mix with veggies. 
After egg is cooked remove veggies from pan and plate.
Use same pan to fry the other egg.
Once egg is fried place on top of stir fry and add pistachios.
You can add hot sauce (chili sauce whatever) for a little extra kick, tastes great!
