Make a liquado . . . mango with milk, ice, sugar or equal, at least and anything else you have in the cooler . . . excellent! I add protein powder, vanilla flavored . . .

Mango Pie :tumble::bounce::spingrin:

Don't overcook. Mangos are more delicate than peaches.

...and don't forget to remove the pits.:P

mango madness


Today I diced up about 15 huge mangos.
I made mango sorbet
I made little bags of mangos to freeze for smoothies later
I have, in the past, made mango turnovers. I stew the mangos down with some spices...cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves...kinda apple pie spices.

I make a mango bread...kind of like banana bread.
Also make a "pastel fria" with....Maria cookies for the crust, vanilla pudding with cool whip mixed for the next layer ...and then sliced mangoes all over the top.

I'm liking your ideas Judy...
I'm thinking that mango season was something we really missed by not taking our usual Cabo trip this summer!

We have a Cabela's food dehydrator that we make mango chips with. They turn out great and keep forever in the freezer. I put them in sandwich size bags, just the right amount for a snack.

Make mango jam (just at sugar and boil it) and use it on toast and as a topping on vanilla ice cream. But, you have to add lime juice to it to bring up the tartness.

Adding frozen mango to Margaritas works great and makes a nice looking drink.

Anybody ever try to make mango pie with the exact same recipe as for a peach pie? I think the problem is that the mango meat would liquefy and you would get a loosely viscous runny pie. Maybe using slightly unripe mango meat would work???

OOPS
I forgot
For the turnovers, I shake a little corn starch through a sieve into the mangos, stirring constantly, to thicken up the natural juices. Since my mangos are super fresh, I have never had to use sugar in any of my recipes. If you have a tree, try them without sugar.

Well since the people of San Jose are known as Los Mangeros, this is the place for the potluck!

Chuckie,


Just finished baking some mango scones. They are still hot. I'll trade you for some Dorado :)

Ashley, my latest model, is my housekeepers kid. She cleans the place and I get entertained for aday. A great deal!
