Plate greens, and any other toppings you desire other than the tomatoes, mango and shrimp.
Prepare dressing, thin with balsamic vinegar until desired consistency. Can blend in blender for a creamier texture.
Grill or saute shrimp in Chipotle Olive Oil and Mango Balsamic Vinegar. Toss with dressing and tomatoes, remaining mango then plate on greens
Twist: Use Green Chile Olive Oil for more of a KICK to saute the shrimp! Use only Mango Balsamic Vinegar for the dressing. Try Blood Orange, or Lime Olive oils in the dressing. CHEATER: use precooked shrimp and marinate in balsamic and oil for 1/2 hour.

Even though traditional Gumbo has okra in it, we omit it at our house because, to be honest, I would be the only one eating it!
So here is our Northern and Kid friendly Version

Put butter into a small to medium sized skillet on medium high heat. When the butter is melted add 1/2 c flour (I used gluten free). stir frequently, until the roux is browned and thickened. MUST WATCH not to burn. When thickened, add to stock pot.
Vegetables & Meat
In a larger skillet: Use 1 T Green chile Olive oil to saute: (veggies first, then meat). When veggies are done (onions translucent and others tender) add them to the stock pot. To your pan add a little more oil, cook chicken until no longer pink, add to pot. I used a sealed bag and added a couple Tablespoons of Fresco Elite 8, salt & pepper and tossed chicken until coated, then added to the warmed oil. I did the same with the shrimp. Cook shrimp and add to pot. (I switched up to Red Cayenne Oil for the Shrimp, because I added them to my husband's and my bowl instead of the stock pot-- the kids think it's too hot!) Just sear the sausage, and add to stock pot.
