Fresh Rec Stop Recipe of the Month: Mango Shaved Ice
By Garrett Simpson, NASM-CNC, Community Health Leader
Mango shaved iced is a refreshing dessert that offers more than just a sweet treat. It also provides several nutritional benefits. Fresh mango is rich in vitamin C, vitamin A, and antioxidants, which help support immune health and skin vitality. The fruit also contains dietary fiber that can aid digestion and promote a feeling of fullness. When garnishing with sweetened condensed milk, it can add calcium to the dish, supporting bone health and muscle maintenance. Enjoyed in moderation, this vibrant dessert delivers both tropical flavor and a boost of beneficial nutrients.
