Watermelon Salsa
First things first, let’s admire this colorful creation that’ll make your taste buds do the happy dance. Seriously, how can you resist such a fun and fruity appetizer?
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of diced fresh watermelon
- 1 cup of diced cucumber
- 1/2 cup of chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro
- 1 jalapeño, diced (remove seeds for less heat)
- Juice of 2 limes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Start by dicing your watermelon into bite-sized pieces. If you’re like me, you might sneak a few bites along the way—no judgment here!
- Next, grab your cucumber. Peel it if you fancy, then chop it into similar-sized pieces as the watermelon. This provides a nice crunch—like your favorite snappy joke!
- Now, onto that gorgeous red onion. Half a cup may seem like a lot, but trust me, it adds flavor that will make your salsa sing!
- Chop up that cilantro like it’s your best friend (if your best friend is light, fresh, and fabulous). Toss it in with the other ingredients.
- Feeling adventurous? Dice up the jalapeño and mix it in for a little kick! Just remember to wash your hands afterward—we don’t want any accidental eye watering!
- Now, time to squeeze the lime juice into the mix. This is where the magic happens! Fresh lime juice takes this salsa from good to “Oh wow, did you really make this?”
- Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste. Give it a good stir and taste. Adjust the seasoning as necessary—it’s your show!
Serve this Watermelon Salsa chilled with tortilla chips, or surprise your guests by spooning it over grilled chicken or fish. Watch out, because this dish is bound to steal the spotlight! You’ll be the star of the barbecue, and people will start penning odes to your genius. Enjoy!
