Papaya Coconut Lime Yogurt

papayacoconutlimeyogurtΒΌ cup shredded sweetened coconut
7 oz Greek-style yogurt
1 Tbsp. honey
1 Tbsp. lime juice, freshly squeezed
1 large or 3 small ripe papayas, peeled, halved lengthwise, and seeded
lime wedges, for serving

Spread coconut evenly over bottom of a small skillet, and cook over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until just golden, about 2 minutes. Let cool completely.

In a medium bowl, whisk together coconut, yogurt, honey, and lime juice. Slice papaya into 1" thick wedges. Serve papaya with yogurt and lime wedges on the side.

Makes 4 servings.


Cook's Note:  Papayas are native to Central America. Choose fruit with almost completely reddish-orange skin that yields slightly to the touch. Avoid green papayas because they have been picked too early and will not ripen.
