Spicy Mango and Cheese

1/2 perfectly ripe pink and green mango

ground cinnamon and/or nutmeg 

black pepper

1/2c± cottage cheese

shredded pepperjack cheese

Try as I might. . .it's so hard for me to eliminate my sugar cravings, or at least channel them into something healthier. I've found a few ways, this being the most recent. Peel and slice half a mango into a pretty glass bowl to make yourself feel it's a special dessert 😉 shake on cinnamon or nutmeg, just out of the container, not mixed with sugar. Add a grind or shake of some really good black pepperTop with cottage cheese and pepper jack cheese.


Mmmmm! This is SO good! 

Mangos are really interesting to me. I'm not a peach person at all, yet these remind me of a peach infused with pine. . .and I love them! Papayas are great dried. I've never had a fresh one, but I hear they're really good with lime. When I was at Aldi's last week the papayas and mangos both looked great.
Time to be adventurous I think! . . Lin

*Pepper is really good on certain fruits, especially pears!  If I can find some good fresh ones this summer, at a farmers market, I'm thinking I might can them, simmering them with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and peppercorns!
