You know what I had for breakfast this morning, 'fruit of the angels' (according to Columbus!) a delicious chilled papaya from the tree in our garden covered with organic chia seeds. I enjoyed every mouth watering bite! It is a superfood aiding improved digestion, heart and lung health, arthritis and eye disorders. Papaya are packed with anti-oxidants, vitamins C, A, K & E, plus magnesium, folate, beta carotene, lutein and more! We have a surplus of seeds if you would like to try growing one! Here is a link to the recipe for the spicy thai green papaya salad (you must use an unripe ie green papaya). Was great to have a much today, I prepared a big salad with dark greens from the garden, cabbage, beets, basil, pepitas and sunflower seeds with a separate jar of dressing to take to work and a couple of carrots to munch on.We went out later that evening to a friend's place for a polker night. They had prepared unexpected pizzas for dinner, I scrounged an apple from their fruit bowl and happily munched away. I was a little peckish as we left until my hunger pangs were totally undermined by being absolutely frozen all the way home on the moto. Was too tired and cold to think of anything except jumping into a warm bed!
