Notes
This recipe is suitable for Passover. Check that the ingredients are okay according to your level of observance.
The original recipe that I modified was Vegan Coconut Macroons from Livestrong.
TIP: Coconut milk in a can tends to separate - I put the whole UNOPENED can in a bowl of hot water for a couple of minutes, then shake well.

Substitutions
Coconut: Although classified by the FDA as a tree nut, coconut is not a common allergen and is not related to tree nuts. If you have a tree nut allergy, consult your physician to find out if you need to avoid coconut.
Milk and Soy Substitutions: Alternative dairy-free milk beverages and products will work in most recipes. Find out more about milk substitutions and soy substitutions.
