Notes: I first made this in Texas with These United States as our last meal together. I love making food for them, and it was a nice send off to do what I do best. Colin particularly liked my sauce with the apple and mango, and I have been meaning to make it again and put it on this blog, so here it is! The mango and apple add a ton of sweetness, and the cilantro ties in with the mango quite a bit. It is really a unique and great sauce. I know, I should make the tomato part from scratch too, which is why I didn’t give it a higher rating, but it works nonetheless, and is quick. Thanks for the meal guys!
