It’s Time to Fall in Love with Mango

Leaves are falling and mango is calling! We’ve reached the end of summer and we’re gearing up for shorter days, longer nights, cooler temps, and, of course, more mango. With the beginning of autumn comes the comfort-food season. As the months turn chilly, not only do the leaves change but so does our appetite! We start craving hearty foods—the kind of stick-to-your-ribs meals that warm you up and give you energy to take on the day strong. Plus, as the temperature dials down, one serving of mango (3/4 cups) provides 50% of your daily value of vitamin C , playing an important role in immune function during this time of year.
