Lemon Coconut Bars

These had even my Dad raving. I have to say they are superb. What's not to love about something so quick, simple, and delicious.

Raw Lemon Coconut Bars:

1 cup almonds
1 1/2 cup pitted dates (recommend Medjool)
1 cup dried, shredded coconut
2 TBSP lemon juice
zest of 1 lemon
~1 tsp vanilla extract or seeds of one vanilla bean
1/4 salt

Chop almonds in food processor into small pieces. Use the "flour around the edges of the container to dust the bottom of a 8" or 9" glass baking dish.
Add remaining ingredients and process until well combined.
Press into the dish and cover with wax paper.
Refrigerate for a couple hours or overnight. Cut into squares to serve.
