- Preheat oven to 180 degrees C. Coat a large baking dish with cooking spray.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook pasta in boiling water until cooked through but still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
- Place a large frypan over medium heat; cook the sausage, onion and mango in the frypan until the sausage is completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in tomato puree and about half the Cheddar cheese; heat until the cheese is melted. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in cooked spaghetti. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top with remaining Cheddar cheese.
- Bake in preheated oven until the Cheddar cheese is hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes.

This was just OK. Kids, ages 7 and 1, enjoyed it. My mango was not that ripe, so I'm not sure if that makes a difference. I couldn't even taste the mango. Just seemed kind of plain to me--no spices other than s&p--and some of the spaghetti noodles got crispy dry in the oven, so you may want to cover for the first portion of the baking process. Since it was just tomato puree mixed in, it almost seemed like I was tossing it with ketchup. I will post a photo shortly. - 09 Oct 2009 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
I thought it was pretty good:\ But I hate mango so I left it out. - 29 Oct 2010 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
My husband hates leftovers... Just cooked this and he wants to have it again, leftover! I did adapt slightly, because I read it, wanted it, and didn't want to go to the store for real ingredients. substituted 4 chopped carrots for mango, added 3 cloves garlic, added a bit of mozzarella, and used crushed tomatoes instead of puree. It was super! - 07 Mar 2010 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
