    What's your favorite way to eat mangos?

    Do you eat them as-is, or do you have a favorite recipe using mangos?

    I like to eat them as-is but my favorite way is in a black bean-mango salad (or salsa), which is made from canned black beans (drained and rinsed), fresh mango, red pepper, fresh cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.  Yum yum!

    As-is, in a smoothie or as the topping fruit in a pavlova ^_^  They add a great texture to juicer drinks as well plus they're so sweet they hide vegetables as well.

      They do add amazing texture and flavor to smoothies! I'm really going to have to try the pavlova. It's on my to-do list. :   )

      Oh you'll love the pavlova! I tried the gluten free dumplings today ^_^ unfortunately my husband preferred the classic. I realized I used rice powder not flour... I'm going to give it another go  and make the rice flour myself as you did.

      I'm so glad you tried the dumplings! Yes, I think making the flour yourself is the key. They really are wonderful and you know exactly what you're getting when you make everything yourself.

    Any way I can get them.  Best is peel like a banana and eat fresh. I went to lunch when I was in Africa with my friend. When the man of the house saw me peeling the mango he made me take another one teaching me how to score it and peel it like a banana.  I got to eat two mangoes in one lunch, Heavenly!

      I agree. There's nothing like a mango fresh off the tree!

    Yummy mangos! Living in Hawaii, we have a mango season, and this year we had some huge mangos. I love to eat them many ways, but my favorite is to cube them and add yogurt - very healthy and tasty. I also love them in salsa.

      Mangos and yogurt sounds wonderful! I'll have to try that soon...maybe with a drizzle of honey just for the fun of it. Thanks for a great idea.

    All of the suggestions here are great! My favorite way is to eat them fresh, but smoothies and salsa are both wonderful options. I also like to eat them with vanilla ice cream sometimes.

      Yum! Vanilla ice cream. That's a delicious idea.

    I eat them green with Aloha Shoyu (soy sauce), it may sound gross, but when you grow up with Mango trees in your front yard, its a tasty way to eat a snack on the way to where you going.

    sliced mangos mixed with little salt, pepper and oil is very delicious to eat.....
    you can make mango curry which is eat along with white rice.
    Another way is to make a juice with milk,nuts and little bit pepper

      Both of those ideas sound very delicious! I'll definitely give it a try. Thanks so much for commenting!

    I would have to agree with the mango salsa. I had it on a Disney cruise one, with potato wrapped shrimp and it was amazing.

    Hi vespawoolf!  I love them in smoothies.  They are great alone or with any other fruit.  I might have one for breakfast tomorrow!
