Papaya Summer Salad from Goa



          Summer salad created from fruit stands in Goa! This was once of our only culinary creations when backpacking in India. All of the ingredients did not require washing since they all had skins and peels. Every time I make this salad at home now, it is pure delicious nostalgia! Actually, these would be excellent smoothie ingredients as well. In general, this recipe provides fiber, protein, natural sugars and a refreshing, cleansing sensation on the body and mind! We learned from our experience that it is grateful and fulfilling to bless your food in any way you can think of. One way includes placing your hands above your meal and chanting the sacred sound of OM.
