MANGOSPACHO

Mangospacho image

A friend of mine made this for a dinner party. It is a very refreshing chilled soup that is equally good with fresh or believe it or not canned mango. The advantage of the canned mango is you don't have to peel it nor cut it off the seed. The recipe comes from Royal Caribbean International cookbook.
