Add some spice to your life

A patient gave us this recipe at support group yesterday - it was such an interesting idea! Great for a mid afternoon snack!

1 mango
juice from 1/2 a lemon
2-3 Tablespoons raw pumpkin seeds, shelled (can be purchased at Trader Joes)
Cayenne pepper

1. Peel mango and cut into wedges or dice
2. Squeeze juice from half a lemon over mango pieces.
3. In a saute pan over medium heat (or in the toaster oven) toast the pumpkin seeds until just lightly browned.
4. Put pumpkin seeds in a coffee grinder to grind up or you can use a mortar and pestle to grind them up.
5. Sprinkle ground pumpkin seeds over mango. Sprinkle a tiny bit of cayenne pepper over it.
6. Mix and enjoy!
