papaya salsa in a hot minute

Papaya makes a lovely salsa that you can toss together in a few minutes to lighten up a dinner or just use up that leftover half in the fridge. You can really add a variety of fruits and vegetables (peaches? apples? jicama?), but then you're stepping into time-consuming fruit salsa territory.

Super quick and lovely with everything.

papaya salsa

1/2 of a papaya, peeled, seeded, chopped
3 or 4 green onions, sliced
an ear of corn, cut from the cob
a handful of grape tomatoes, quartered
a handful of basil, roughly chopped

chili, if you like it

Toss it all together in a big bowl and chow down.
