Hi fellow food bloggers, I know you are still out there! Well, when I saw the melon in Matt’s haul this week. I remembered a recipe I found, but had never tried. I originally copied the recipe because it said that while it is good with tortilla chips, it is also a good topping on fish. It is called “Watermelon Fire and Ice Salsa.” From allrecipes.com. I was able to use Matt’s green peppers and a jalapeno in this recipe along with the watermelon. Very simple , but really refreshing and delicious. Would really have hit the spot on a hot summer day.
Recipe: 3 c chopped watermelon, I drained them after chopping, 1/2 c chopped green bell pepper, 2 tbsp lime juice, 1 tbsp chopped green onions, 1 tbsp chopped jalapeno pepper, 2 tbsp fresh cilantro (I don’t like this, tastes like soap to me, so I used parsley) & 1/2 tsp garlic salt. Combine everything in a large bowl and chill.
It was delicious!!
Looks yummy! Kim made a mango salsa once that he put on grilled fish and I loved that, so watermelon sounds great to me!
That looks so interesting. I’m not a big watermelon person, but that might be just why such a creative recipe might work for me. Wish I could have sampled it.
