Quick Post: Berry Mango Fruit Salad with Lime

Hello and Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there! I hope you are feeling loved and appreciated today. I didn't get to see my mom today (we celebrated yesterday), but I made a fruit salad in her honor. Thanks again for everything that you do, Mom!

This is a super simple fruit salad that goes great with just about anything. I chose to pair it with a strawberry pound cake I had left over from yesterday, and it went perfect together. The cake soaked up all the yummy juices, and the whipped cream paired amazingly with the tartness of the mangoes and zing of lime. It's also just really good on it's own - all you do is toss the fruit together, squeeze the lime over, and sprinkle with a little sugar - done!

Enjoy your day, moms!

Ingredients

1/2 mango cut into chunks
handful of ripe blackberries
4-5 strawberries cut into rounds and spears
1/4-1/2 lime (depending on juiciness)
1/2 tsp sugar

Serving size: 1-2

Strawberry Hootenanny

A few days ago, whilst perusing Pinterest, I came across an interesting breakfast recipe called “hootenanny,” aka oven pancakes. First of all, the recipe looked easy as pie – 1 cup milk, 1 cup flour, 6 eggs, 1/4 tsp salt: blend and bake (how simple is that?). Secondly, it looked delectable with the way it bubbled up and browned around the edges; I could almost taste it! And lastly, but certainly not leastly, it’s called hootenanny…hootenanny!! How could I not give it a try? 

Of course, I couldn’t leave well enough alone, so I added yummy strawberries on top before baking, which made a very delicious addition (plus, look how pretty!). I might make a couple more changes next time, but overall I liked how the recipe turned out. Very yummy!
