Mango Mania

In my spare time this week, I've been playing around with mangos. The mango raisin curry cardamom ice cream is great. I had no recipe, but the flavors came out perfect. I have a recipe now, what I did worked. This would be great served with a homemade coconut cookie and a rum sauce for an over the top dinner party desert. I'm just happy with it on its own. Don't let the curry scare you, it's very refreshing.

Also made a mango and pepper glaze BBQ sauce for some beef ribs. I'm sure this would also be perfect with baby back pork ribs, grilled chicken, fish and even as a gaze for grilled pineapple.

The mango strawberry smoothie for breakfast was very refreshing.

Somewhere I have a recipe for mango banana ketchup for grilled meats. I'll be playing around with that one soon. 

Mangos are packed full of vitamins and antioxidants.

I once read that there are 1000 different varieties. Wow, I've only seen a few.

As always 

Eat well and do something good for the world each day

That reminds me, I need to compost some kitchen scraps.
