Great recipe. I kept the ingredients as written but, due to time, I amended to cook in my electronic pressure cooker. I would also like to try to cook it in the oven one time. I have to agree I found it is was a milder flavours than I was expecting but that was ok cause I was serving it as a side dish to a flavour-filled roasted pork tenderloin. If you want it kicked up abit, either increase the cumin or add 1/2 can of diced green chilies. The combination of the beans, with mango & (brown) rice was fabulous, thanks for sharing.

This was really good - I added some red pepper flakes to increase the heat a little. Because I kept the crockpot on after adding the mangoes, they had time to stew a little, which made the bean mixture a little sweeter and really brought everything together. Next time, I'll add them about an hour before the cooking time is over.

This is great, thanks for the recipe! I used serranos, and on the advice of other reviewers I added a can of mild green chilies and a little crushed red pepper.

This was a really nice vegetarian dish! I made it as directed, except didn't saute the veggies first... just threw it all in the crockpot and turned it on. My jalapeno must have been very mild bkz there was not a hint of spicyness to it at all. Next time I'll use to peppers or throw in some cayenne or crushed red peppers flakes. Thanks for posting... my whole family enjoyed it and it was a perfect way to use leftover rice!

This is fantastic!!! I added a 1/2 cup of medium salsa to the beans while cooking and an additional mango right before serving. My girls absolutely loved it! Next time I make this I want to have it with some cheese quesadillas on the side. Thanks for this wonderful recipe!!! Made for veg*n tag.

Another EXCELLENT FLAVORFUL HEALTHY VEGAN recipe from Dreamer! I'm loving your recipes! I used a white onion, canned minced jalapenos, brown sugar Splenda, and frozen defrosted mangos. I added some red pepper flakes. This was a bit spicy but the flavor comes through. The spice mix was new for us...I think it might be Caribbean? It was a whole meal for us full of fiber and protein. Made for the Please Review game.

This was really good! I made everything on the stovetop and it worked very well. I thought two mangos would be too much so i used one but of course I was wrong, the mangos really make it special. I will definitely make this dish again, thanks so much for posting!

This has become one of my semi-regular dishes, especially good for guests and potlucks. I use vegetable broth instead of oil (I freeze leftover broth in ice cube trays and use 1 or 2 instead of oil for sauteing veggies). I use a whole red bell pepper (why not?), 2 jalapenos since they're breeding them to be milder these days (look for ones with white line scarring if you want the hotter ones), double the cumin, allspice, oregano, and black pepper. I also do not use the optional mild green chiles or crushed red pepper. Thanks for posting this recipe!

I cooked this on the stovetop for about 20 minutes over low heat instead of in the slow cooker. I was hoping for a strong mango flavor with each bite but the spice mix really overpowered the mango. I love mango, so I'd prefer not to waste one on a recipe that doesn't feature it front and center. Might keep this recipe around to try with leftover pineapple though.

This is such a great weeknight dinner! My boyfriend and I LOVE the seasonings that make this otherwise cheap and simple dish so amazing! We've been enjoying leftovers for lunch, and I also wrapped some up in tortillas and put them in the freezer for future lunches.

My husband and son raved about this. I followed other reviewers and dumped the veggies in the cooker first to saute then added the beans and spices. then right before serving added the rice and mangoes. I didn't have red pepper but I think I would have improved the flavor. I also didn't think there was enough spice even though I put 2 jalapenos. I'll make this again but probably tinker with the spices some. Great for a busy week night.

This was great- I used red kidney beans and brown rice. I omitted the red pepper, as I didn't have any and I made it stove top (no time for slow cooking). It took maybe 25-30m using the quick cooking rice. We will certainly make this again!

This recipe was genius! I love how it incorporates several food groups. I will be quite honest with you: I completely forgot that I was suppose to be cooking this for dinner. It was not until 3:30 that I realized I had forgotten! Well, I had no way out... the mangos were about to go wayward, so I pressed on. Like a previous review suggested I simply threw everything except the rice and mangos into the crock pot, completely eliminating steps 1-3; and to top it off I took a leap of faith and cooked it on high for 2 hours. Eureka, it turned out fabulous! Next time I think I will add some leftover shredded chicken and top it with some cheese, yum!

It is really hot and steamy here in London tonight and I didn't want to run my oven. So, I found this recipe and threw it in the slow cooker first thing and it was done by meal time. We both enjoyed the taste. I was expecting my hubby to pick out the mango but he didn't which has to be another plus. This could be adapted a lot too. I served my hubby quorn sausages with his serving and I could see chopping some in and throwing it in the general mix. Maybe a can of chopped tomatoes too? I served mine with sauteed plantains. Made for Chow Hounds on ZWT5.

This was pretty good but not a favorite with the kids. I thought the mango would make them eat it better but it did not happen. I don't think I liked the ginger and allspice in it and would leave it out next time. This was my fault though because I know that those are not my favorites and I should have just left them out. Made for ZWT5 for the Cooks with Dirty Faces.

Loved this recipe! I was looking for mango recipes because I got a 22-count box of the small yellow mangoes from Mexico for $2.99! What mango lover could pass that up? Doubled the amount of mango but otherwise followed the recipe. I did just simmer it on the stove for about 30 minutes rather than use a crock pot. Served it with grilled kiolbasa sausage and sliced avocado. If the sausage hadn't had jalapeno in it, I would have made this recipe hotter with more jalapeno, or maybe Tabasco. I will be making this again and again!

We really liked this rice dish, but felt like it was missing something. The flavors were wonderful - we loved the sweet/heat combination. I think we felt like we'd like the bean mixture to have a little sweetness to it, in addition to heat from the jalapenos. Next time, we might add some apricot preserves to the bean mixture before adding the rice and mango ...just a thought...if we try it, I'll let you know how it turns out. All-in-all, a really unique and tasty recipe. Thanks, Dreamer!

It was interesting, but I thought the flavor was bland. Something seemed to be missing. I wasn't excited enough about it to try again.
