Yummy!!

This quick, easy recipe was just what I was looking for to use a papaya I had on hand. I gathered the cilantro and scallions from my garden. Didn't have fresh lime juice so I substituted undiluted frozen limeade.

The flavor was fresh and bright. It was the perfect accompaniment to the tilapia I cooked for dinner.

I'll absolutely make this again using fresh lime juice. It almost made me believe I could feel sea breezes and hear steel drums playing here in the New Mexico desert!
