Mangolicious

The other evening Steve and I had a long-overdue visit with friends from my ex-work.

TO DO: clean house, decide what to serve. Hmmm.

The six-pack of mangoes I'd whimfully purchased at Costco the week before were "aheming;" a gentle reminder not to let them rot in their groovy podlike container. So I Googled (yes, it's a verb) "mango appetizers," et voila! A luscious selection of mango-based recipes for our gastronomic pleasure.

I didn't even waffle very long; three recipes chosen, I shopped for additional ingredients and whipped up three appetizers in under an hour. They were very easy to make, looked very luxe, and were mangolicious.

MENU (I think I improved on the recipe names)

Mango salsa and chips
Shrimp & mango bowl
Brie with zippy mango
&
Mango margaritas

If you're very nice to me, I'll make some when you next visit.
