Keto “Green Papaya” Salad
This salad is absolutely delicious! It substitutes green papaya for carb-friendly chayote squash. The squash is julienned on a mandoline (you can do by hand if you have a sharp knife) and then combined with chopped green beans, Thai chilies (use more or less depending on your preference), chopped dried shrimp (optional, but so good), scallions, thinly sliced radish, chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts. The salad is dressed with lime juice, fish sauce, sweetener, and minced garlic. The tart, sweet, crunchy, spicy with crushed peanuts puts this side dish over the top!
