Ahhhhh summer. We all have our triggers of what that stirs up deep in our souls. Mine today is ice cream. Think of all the different memories we all have just from that one food item. Food is such an important part of who we are. It is sad how much that vibration deep within us is being lost today because of the lack of connection with our food. My connection is a powerful one because I strongly believe you are what you eat.Today in my world of gluten, dairy, soy and egg free this treat can be a challenge. I have found a friend in Luna & Larry's Coconut Bliss frozen dessert. They have many flavors to satisfy that summer craving. So this isn't really a recipe, just some ingredients I combined to create a new memory. I just finished a weekend with a great summer concert and felt like being creative.
We found these interesting peppers this weekend. Spicy Calabrian Peppers. A new taste treat for me from Italy. The brand is Isola. The sodium content is higher than products I normally purchase but I only used one so it was fine.
I just scooped Luna & Larry's vanilla island flavor in a dish. Sliced and chopped up an Ataulfo mango for the topping. The inside is velvety smooth with almost no fibrous texture, unlike other varieties. Really this mango variety is so similar to the ones you get in Hawaii. Then put the pepper on top. Indulge.
It was the perfect treat to top off the great summer weekend concert MOJO. So much fun!!
