Healthy mango jalapeno yogurt parfait
Do you like mango lassi? How about mango salsa? Here is a healthy yogurt parfait inspired by mango lassi and mango salsa!
Mango lassi is an Indian yogurt drink, prepared by blending yogurt and mangoes along with sugar, absolutely delicious. This yogurt parfait is like a deconstructed mango lassi 🙂 Mango salsa is a condiment made with mangoes, onions and Jalapenos. Mangoes and Jalapenos go amazingly well together which made me add Jalapenos into my yogurt parfait with mangoes and it magically tasted so much better!
Tips
- Use sweet mangoes! Mangoes taste the best only when they are in season. Frozen mangoes can be used as long as they taste good!
- I like to use yogurt that isn’t very tart.
- Greek yogurt or strained yogurt, plant based yogurt can be used too.
- Regular sugar or any other sweetener can be used instead of honey.

Mangoes are hands down, my favourite fruit. When mangoes are in season, I happily eat a bowl of mangoes and call it dinner 🙂 I also like to cook with mangoes. I grew up eating traditional, seasonal dishes made with mango like this Mango sasive. Do not miss checking out one of the most popular recipes on the blog, mango sticky rice!
