Cool Down with Some Heat!

In hopes of warm weather I have been test-driving a few new tropical fruit recipes. The first recipe is a Mango Chutney that tastes great on top of fish or chicken, in tacos or as a dip. I like my food spicy so it has a bit of a kick! The second is actually just a Pineapple snack (Vietnamese street food) passed on to me by my Vietnamese friend.

Mango Chutney

3 Ripe Mangoes
2 Granny Smith Apples
1/4 C. Chopped Red Onion
1/4 C. Chopped Cucumber
1 Tsp. Cayenne Pepper
Lime Juice

Chop the Mangoes and Apples into small chunks. Combine with Onion & Cucumber. Toss in the Cayenne Pepper and top off with lime juice to taste.

Sweet & Spicy Pineapple

1 Pineapple, sliced
2 Tbls. Salt
Sriracha

Combine salt with several drops of Sriracha to be used as a dip for the Pineapple!
