Isn’t this papaya dragon fruit salad beautiful?
Yes, I can report that it is as delicious as it is pretty.
These colors are beautiful together.
In general, tropical fruits tend to have flavors that work well together. That is definitely the case with dragon fruit and papaya.
Dragon fruit comes with either purple or white flesh. I prefer the purple, but will gladly eat either of them.
I love the flavors and appearance of dragon fruit (aka pitaya) and papaya.
The salad also includes lime juice for a bit of tartness and fresh ginger for a little kick.
They go well with the natural sweetness of the dragon fruit and papaya.
