Mango Mangos<\/a> is a Caribbean-style restaurant with locations on US 1 and A1A.\u00a0 After looking at their menu online that had a couple veggie selections including a message\u00a0 stating they would create something for a vegetarian we decided to give them a try.\u00a0 Our server was very helpful and suggested a Quesadilla Wrap, minus the cheese and chicken and adding avocado.\u00a0 I had mine with fried plantains and my wife with sweet potato fries.\u00a0 Both were perfect and delicious, more than we expected. Almost every item on the menu incorporates mango in some fashion.\u00a0 Topped with, grilled, slathered in, melted in mango and their mango salsa is outstanding.<\/p>\n

We both had the Greenrito, a mix of avocado, spring mix, tomato and loads of hummus in a wrap and my daughter had a Natural Mystic smoothie with strawberry, peach, kiwi, pineapple and coconut.\u00a0 The wraps are $6-7 and smoothies are $4 for a large.\u00a0 The wraps were served with tortilla chips and were huge, plenty for that after-beach hunger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Once again, we took our yearly trip to St. Augustine in search of sand and surf to wash away the daily doldrums of work and humdrum-ness, and once again we find ourselves in a place that’s not-so-veggie-friendly.\u00a0 We always make our visit to The Spanish Bakery for gazpacho, fresh baked bread and lemon cookies, a […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[122,90,123],"tags":[572,545,573],"class_list":["post-276","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mango-mangos","category-plantains","category-stir-it-up","tag-mango-mangos","tag-plantains","tag-stir-it-up"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=276"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":458,"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/276\/revisions\/458"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=276"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=276"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/nashveggie.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=276"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
