Chef's Tips

For added crunch, toast the shredded coconut before sprinkling on top.
Adjust the level of sweetness by using more or less mango depending on your preference.

Troubleshooting

If the casserole is too watery, let it bake a little longer to absorb some moisture.
If the top is browning too quickly, cover with aluminum foil.

Recipe Variations

Substituting pineapple for mango for a different tropical flavor.
Using different proteins like scallops or chicken.

Healthy Alternatives

Use light coconut milk to lower the fat content.
Replace shrimp with tofu or chickpeas for a vegetarian option.

Serving Suggestions

Serve with a side of mixed greens or a citrus salad for a refreshing contrast.
Pair with a tropical smoothie for a complete summer meal.
