Fresh Rec Stop Recipe of the Month: Mango Sago
By Garrett Simpson, NASM-CNC, Community Health Leader
This refreshing mango sago recipe combines the tropical flavors of mango and coconut milk while offering several nutritional benefits. Mangos are rich in vitamin C, which supports immune function, and contain antioxidants like beta-carotene that promote eye and skin health. Coconut milk provides healthy fats, particularly medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which may support energy levels and brain function. Together, they create a naturally sweet, nutrient-rich dessert that’s both satisfying and hydrating. With the added texture of tapioca pearls, this dish is a wholesome treat that delivers both comfort and nourishment.
