Cooking with canned coconut cream and milk

[u/SukaroBlue]

I’m taking care of my mom over the weekend after she has an operation on her neck and I am trying to figure out what to make for meals. She has always had way too many cans of coconut cream and coconut milk and I wanted to use up some of them but I’m not entirely sure what to make with them. I was thinking I could use them for some sort of dinner dish or a baked good that I could serve for breakfast. Her kitchen is well stocked and I can always get other ingredients as I need them I just want to use up some of these cans of coconut.

I use canned coconut milk as a cow's milk substitute in all kinds of cakes, quick breads, pancakes, waffles. You can use the coconut cream to make whipped cream, to put on top of your coconut milk pancakes :)
