My recipes: Mango popsicles and compote


Healthy popsicles are a staple in our house during these hot days!  And the best compliment for these ones?  My husband saying, "They don't even taste healthy!"

Mission accomplished.

Mango Popsicle

Ingredients:
2 mangos
1 400mL can coconut milk
1 banana
1 T coconut nectar

Blend. Pour. Freeze. Enjoy!


**And because mangos were on sale I picked up quite a few.  I had made raw vegan cheesecake without the topping so tonight I made a super quick and easy compote using only one ingredient: mango!

Mango Compote

(1) roughly cut the mango from the seed
(2) place in a small saucepan/ pot on low heat for 45-60 minutes.
(3) Once the mango is soft, mash it into a stew-like sauce.
(4) Cook on low heat for another 60-90 minutes to cook off the liquid.
(5) Remove from heat.  Place in refrigerator if a cooled compote is preferred.

That's it!  No sugars needed!
