Zesty Watermelon Salsa
Summer is the season for all of the senses! Along with the aromas of grilling meat wafting through our evening air, the season brings a bounty of bold, beautiful, and delicious fresh fruits and veggies. And there aren’t many fruits that scream summer more than watermelon.
We’ve all enjoyed slices and chunks as a side to our summer feasts. Here’s a recipe that will bring watermelon to the center of the plate. One of the great things about this recipe is that it’s easy to modify to fit your taste.
