Would love to get a version of this recipe. Sounds great and would be a great thing to have on hand if someone wants a grilling show for 4th of July or Labor Day and want to do brats or hot dogs.

Mango Cuke Relish (Taste of Home, July 2011)
1 meduim mango, peeled (serrated peeler and mango wedger)
1/2 cup chopped peeled cucumber
1/4 cup chopped cashews (food chopper)
1/4 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1 green onion, thinly sliced (I used a red onion and demoed the veggie wedger)
1 TBSP minced fresh basil
1 TBSP minced fresh cilantro
1 TBSP vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced (pressed to show garlic press)
1 tsp green curry paste
1/2 tsp. grated lime peel (used the new zester)
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients... I just threw it all in the MFP.
 
I'm so glad it had a good outcome! Way to go!
 
That's awesome! Congratulations!
