Hello there it’s your lily to your loafer; it’s been awhile since the last time we spoke, but I’d like to share a delicious dinner I made the other night – Mango Shrimp.

I’ve been MIA because I’m on the last part of my CPA and let’s just say things are pretty crazy. I tried bribing Brian into writing this post, but it didn’t work. So if you are like me and love to eat good food and but yet have no time to cook, this is the perfect dish!

Now is the perfect season to merge fruit into every meal. What’s so great about this dish is how easily it is to alter to your liking, adjusting the spicy (chili) and the sweet (Mango). So take a look and hope you enjoy this dish just as much as we did.
