Thursday night dinner...

Dan and I were driving past a produce warehouse and I stopped to send him in for a few things. Out he comes with a case of mangoes. There were about 13 in the box and he got them for 3.99 it was a great deal, after loading in the mangoes he goes back in the store and comes back with strawberries and two watermelons. Dan is surely victim to impulse buys at the grocery store.
Anyway, here I am a week later with 10 mangoes that are ready (really ready) to be eaten. So here is the recipe I am using for tonight to attempt to get the 3.99 out of my mango purchase. Feel free to give it a try if you are feeling adventurous. I saw in some other recipes to add some coconut milk. If I make it to the store, I am going to toss some in to see how it tastes.
