Mexican Green Papaya Salad

Recipesfull introduces to you: Fruit Salad Recipes. (Mexican Green Papaya Salad). Green papaya is usually found in Asian, Vietnamese, and Thai salads and dishes. I've taken the crisp crunchiness of green papaya and given it a Mexican/Tex-Mex twist! My kids love it when I use a bit less cilantro and chili powder.
