Papaya Salad

Today I will share with you a papaya salad that I enjoy;
It's sweet and fresh and perfect for summer!
You might know a Thai version of it with green papaya and shrimps....
This is the way I make it and I like it.
I take my papaya a little bit ripe (I read that ripe fruits are best for you) and it's even sweeter like that.

Here is what you need:

- 1 semi ripe papaya
- 1 ripe tomato
- Few raw peanuts (if no allergies!)
- some fresh basil
- half a lime juice


First peel, de-seed and gently shred the papaya

(Looks like juicy bright carrots!)

Add  basil and diced tomato



Then crushed peanuts


and just add 1/2 lime juice for the sauce



I hope you will give it a try and enjoy it!...

Let me know if you have any variation to it.
