Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 cups papaya
  • 1 cup pineapple
  • 1 mango
  • 1 avocado
  • Juice of one lime
  • Mint leaves optional garnish
  • 1 tablespoon Papaya seeds optional garnish
  • 1 pinch Himalayan pink salt optional garnish

Instructions

  • Cut your papaya in half and scoop out the seeds in the middle. Reserve about a tablespoon of the seeds to add to the top of your salad later, and you'll have a little crunchy texture, a slight peppery taste, and a whole host of extra health benefits. Chop your papaya into small chunks.
  • Cut your mango, avocado, and pineapple into similarly sized chunks. You will probably not use your whole pineapple, so only cut what you need and save the rest for later.
  • Combine your fruit in a large bowl, and pour lime juice. Gently stir.
  • Garnish with mint leaves, a pinch of salt to make the fruit flavors pop, and papaya seeds for some crunch and a hint of pepper. Enjoy!
