Super Simple Summer Salsa

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.

Ingredients:

• 3 cups chopped watermelon
• 1-½ teaspoons of lime zest (1 lime)
• ¼ cup of fresh lime juice (3 limes)
• 1 tablespoon of sugar
• Freshly ground pepper
• 1 cucumber
• 1 mango
• 1 jalapeno
• 1 small red onion
• 8 fresh basil leaves
• ½ teaspoon of garlic salt

Serve it in a soft tortilla with grilled chicken or as a salsa dip with tortilla chips. Please share pics of your favorite creations!
