Kiwano Fruit

The commissary is a great place. With all the different ethnicities in the military family, the commissaries try there best to bring different foods from around the world to make us happy. We like to indulge in these every once in awhile. We picked up a new fruit the other week just because they looked cool. Bright orange with spikes. After looking it up online we learned that you eat them like natural push-pops. The little sacks of yummy goodness rise to the top as you squeeze. I advise you eat them outside (see image three: "Oops... too hard").

Mango Rice

We had this at a Thai restaurant one time. After we ate it we came home, found a recipe, made it at home. It's absolutely delicious. The mango and coconut flavors really play well together and the texture is wonderful. Highly recommend it.
