    Super delicious

    Any mention of too many red onions is nonsense. The onions brought out the flavor of everything else. I added a mango to the... mix and it was absolutely fantastic.Read more

    BEWARE THE ONION

    Rated: 2 stars out of 5
    I saved this recipe until we went to Hawaii. Purchased exquisite papayas and avocados, so much better than what we get on... the mainland and so much less expensive. Anyway, the dressing is good, but the onion totally overpowered the delicate flavors of both the avocado and papaya. DO NOT ADD ONION, that is all you will taste and onion and papaya are not two flavors which blend. It was awful and we threw it away. Next time we tried papaya and avocado together with a light dressing and it was wonderful.Read more

    I like avocados...I like papayas...pair them together with the dressing and the flavors together are really good. It's a... very light and refreshing salad and it would be great served with any spicy dish...say hot wings or chili...Read more
