Coconut Mango Sorbet

mango sorbetWhen I was planning the menu for my last cooking class, I wanted to showcase a simple, healthy dessert that would compliment the spicy Thai peanut sauce entree we were making.

Introducing: Coconut Mango Sorbet!

You don’t need an ice cream machine to make it– just a blender or a food processor.  It’s super refreshing and was a huge hit with my class.  It’s easy to make ahead or in bulk, so you can keep dessert or a healthy snack frozen for the kiddos!  There’s a hint of turmeric in this sorbet which accents the beautiful yellow mango color– and adds a really exotic flavor profile.  Plus, it’s packed with antioxidants.  DEEEEEELISH!
