Mango Bonanza

The Mango War rages on...we humans won this round.  The wind blew down a bonanza of mango from our tree. More mangos than we could possibly carry in one trip with arms full of the luscious fruit.

Before you get concerned about the parrots' part in all this...just know that they get their share daily.  Yes, they still take one bit out of the mango just to spoil it for us. They visit all day long.  We continue to haze them to no avail.  They continue their feasts.

We have been making smoothies: mangos, Greek yogurt and ice. Once the mangos are cut, which is no easy task, by Rick the master mango cutter, we throw everything in the blender.

We talked about making mango frozen yogurt.  We have so many mangos that we can't eat them all.  Apparently, the fall is when the mangos ripen and are the best.  We are learning the growing cycles as we go.


Great way to start our mornings. These are super tasty!
