Tasty Papaya Salad

Part of healthy living is not just having a positive mindset, it is also eating healthy food!

Here is a recipe to help with exactly that!

Papaya is sometimes hard to eat on its own due to the distinct flavor it has, but this salad accentuates it perfectly and creates an enjoyable taste experience so you can reap the benefits of this amazing fruit.

Dressing:
- 1 tbsp papaya seeds (or more depending on your preference)
- 1/4 cup papaya
- 1/4 cup red onion
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- 1 clove garlic (or more as desired)
- 1 1/2 tbsp ginger
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- juice 1 lime
- 1 tsp honey
- 1/2 tsp salt
- pinch chili pepper flakes
- 1/4 cup olive oil (add slowly while blending)

Add all ingredients into the blender except for olive oil. While blending ingredients, pour oil slowly into the mixture.

Salad:
- mixed greens
- sliced papaya
- sliced avocado
- sliced red onion
- crumbled vegan feta cheese (use either of these from It Doesn't Taste Like Chicken or Minimalist Baker)
- pecan halves

Drizzle dressing over salad and enjoy!
