An excellent and delicious way to get your probiotics and healthy fats!

You will need:
2 young Thai coconuts
1/2 tsp probiotic powder
2 cups coconut water (preferably from the coconuts used for your yogurt)

Directions:
- open coconuts
and dig out the meat
- place in blender with coconut water and blend
- add in probiotic powder and blend for a moment
- pour into a clean, sterile glass container with lid (Mason jars are my favorite) and make sure to only fill the jar 3/4 of the way full as the yogurt will need room to expand
.
- Let sit for 7-10 hours at room temperature
- Keep sealed in refrigerator for up to 3 days
