It has been INSANELY humid lately and my husband and I have been devouring watermelon like they are going to take it off the shelves tomorrow!

I love snacks that will keep me hydrated, refreshed, and give me a bit of a protein boost when I need a little pick me up on a hot, humid day.  My jello obsession seems to be doing the trick this summer.

Directions:

Put ingredients in the blender and blend until everything is super pureed. 

Heat liquid on stove top until right before it starts to bubble.

place additional frozen mango in bottom of pan.  Or you can add other fruit of choice.
