Having just come from Guimaras where mangoes are plentiful and the best of the best ~ here is one summer breakfast that includes mangoes, which I'd like to share with you. ♥
Summer Fruit Salad
Ingredients:
1 ripe mango
1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
1 banana
1/4 cup mint leaves or any herb you prefer
(note: 1/4 cup = is equivalent to 1 tablespoon)

Procedure:
Slice the banana in a bowl.
Cut as much cheeks off the mango.
Score the flesh in a crisscross pattern.
Scoop the flesh out directly over the bowl so all the juice drips into it.

Toss in the pineapple with any juice that gathered while tearing.
Add the mint and toss gently so as not to mush the fruit.
Chill for about 30 minutes.

This is perfect to have during summer mornings, when you really want something cool, light, and brightly flavored to start your day.
Use whatever summer fruits you want.
I love mint in a fruit salad and feel that it adds a lovely refreshing note.
I didn't add any sweeteners to this because the fruit in itself is sweet enough.
You may serve this with a dollop of Nestle Cream.
Happy Eating! ☺
