    Oh this was fabulous!!!! Everybody loved it & wish I had doubled the recipe. I used frozen/thawed, drained mango with no problem. Made for the 8/07 Aussie swap.

    OH MY! This was yummy! I could have eaten all four servings myself. I am the mango fanatic in my house, but even those who aren't so crazy about mangoes enjoyed this. Very light and refreshing on a warm summer evening. A definite make-again! Thank-you for posting this, Chickee. (I apologise if there are any spelling errors, but ther was a movie advertisement covering part of the comment box and I could not see all of what I was typing. I could not close the ad.)
