MANGO LIME FRENCH TOAST
A friend gave this to me and I looked at her like she had lost her marbles, thinking to myself the whole time, "this has to be disgusting". Well, you know me....if I don't believe in something I usually have to try it to prove myself right. Boy, was I wrong on this one. The lime doesn't overpower, but blends really well with the mango and the bread. Also, it is not fried, but baked in the oven so it is better for you.

MANGO WITH CHILE-LIME SALT
This take on the classic street food, served throughout Mexico, is encountered often in open air markets, beaches and parks in summer. The original is often made with tajín spice, a store-bought blend of ground chile, lime and salt. This preparation allows you to use any variety of mango, in states of ripeness from soft and juicy to firm, and the homemade chile-lime salt can be used for a variety of savory or sweet dishes as a garnish or topping. If using store-bought chile-lime salt, substitute the ground chile, lime zest and salt with 2 tablespoons of the seasoning.
