How would you count containers for 1 portion?
If you want to eat half of the recipe as your portion, divide the container in half. ;)
My husband and I had this for dinner last night…perfect for the 109 degree weather! We both loved it, and he had the leftovers for lunch today. His only request was for more mango, so the next time I make it, I’ll put more in his. Also, I didn’t have any chilies, so I’m looking forward to trying it with a little more kick. We added some Tajin seasoning to help make up for the lack of chilies…super yummy!!
