Coconut and lemon slice

Baking.  Yum.  Baking with a 4 year old: yummy and fun.  I'm all about recipes you can make with your kids that they will enjoy making and eating.  Add to that a few "good for you" ingredients...and you can almost convince yourself that there's nothing naughty about this slice.
