Howdy, this site has bunches of recipes for Mangoes. I just listed a few, but they have some great sounded recipes.

Mango Ice Cream

1 large, fleshy mango weighing about 1 1/2 pounds
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup lime juice
1 cup heavy cream

Peel the mango, cut off the flesh and chop fine. There should be about 2 cups. Make a syrup with the sugar and water simmered together for 5 minutes. Cool. Add to the mango with the lime juice, mixing thouroughly. Whip the cream until stiff and fold into the mango mixture. Freeze in refrigerator ice trays with the cube dividers removed, at the coldest temperature available. Stir after 1 hour, and again at the end of the second hour. The ice cream should be ready in about 2 1/2 hours from the beginning of freezing. Makes 2 ice trays, 6 or more servings.

Mango Tango Salsa

Preparation: To pit a mango, place it stem side up with the narrow side facing you. Make a vertical lice starting at 1/4" to the right of the stem. Repeat on the other side. Lightly score the flesh of the mango into diamonds. Buckle the skin, pushing the flesh outward so that it resembles a porcupine. Slice off the cubes.
Ingredients:
3 ripe mangoes, pitted and cubed
Juice of one lime
1 tablespoon red onion, minced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 jalapeno pepper (optional), seeded and minced
Combine all ingredients. Let stand for 10 minutes. Toss before serving. Serves 6 as a side dish.
Serve with grilled fish, chicken or pork.

Mango Upside-Down Cake

2 cups ripe mangoes, sliced
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup milk
1-1/4 cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder

Pour lemon juice over mangoes and allow to stand 15 minutes. Melt butter in 8-inch pan or casserole. Add brown sugar and cover with a layer of mango slices. To prepare the cake batter: Cream the shortening, add the shortening, add the sugar and cream together, then add beaten egg. Sift dry ingredients and add alternately with milk. Pour over mangoes and bake 50 to 60 minutes at 375 degrees F. When cake is done, turn it out upside-down and serve while still warm. Serve with whipped cream or a lemon or lime sauce.

Is your mouth watering yet? Mine is! Enjoy your mangoes.

Mangoes are great for smoothies and go well with chicken. Some people even like to eat them sprinkling salt on them before each bite--I am not one of those.
