Breadfruit Salad

This is like a sweeter (better) potato salad :)

1 medium frim breadfruit
1 cup celery, diced fine
3 large green onions, chopped, including white and green parts
1 teaspoon Adobo seasoning
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 seasoning peppers, minced
½ cup peeled christophene, diced
1 -8 ounce can mixed vegetables, well drained
1 large onion diced
¼ cup diced pineapple
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 to 1-1/2 cups vegan mayonnaise or salad dressing, or to taste

Peel the breadfruit, cut out the heart and seeds if any, and then slice into sections lengthwise. Boil in salted water until just fork tender—not mushy –about 10-12 minutes. Drain and cool. Cut breadfruit into bite-sized chunks and place in a large bowl. This should give you about 4 -5 cups. Add the celery, green onions, salt, pepper and hot pepper and mix well. Mix in the christophene, canned mixed vegetables, onion, pineapple and lime juice. Add enough mayonnaise or salad dressing to moisten the ingredients enough to suit your taste. Chill for at least an hour. Serve as a side dish.
