We had a busy weekend, but after the mango smoothies and peeling, dicing and freezing mangos… One of my daughters had a playdate… And they asked to make mango ice cream!

One… It’s fun to work in the kitchen with kids… Two… What a great way to end the weekend!

Mango Ice Cream

3/4 cup mango

1/2 cup sugar… Blend until smooth and then place in freezer

Whisk 2 eggs until light and fluffy

Add 3/4 cup sugar a little at a time

Add 1 1/2 c whole milk

Add 1 1/2 c heavy cream

Whisk in Mango purée

Pour into ice cream maker & Voilà… Summer in the tropics!

Have a great Monday! (You can do it!)

Summertime in Miami is marked by these sticky sweet smell of mangos. They are everywhere… Front yards, back yards, sold on the street corners and in huge crates at publix 2 for $1.

I have beautiful tree in my front yard and it’s loaded with fruit… And the yard is covered… And the cars… And the sidewalks and driveway.

Today I gathered them up and gloved up for the prep! And while at it, I made the family mango smoothie. Mango is super healthy and rich with fiber, vitamins and nutrients.
