How to Make Watermelon Fire And Ice Salsa

  1. Dice 4 cups of seedless watermelon into ½-inch pieces.
  2. Finely chop ½ cup of green bell pepper.
  3. Mince 2 jalapeños (remove seeds and membranes for less heat, or leave them in for extra fire!).
  4. Finely chop ½ cup of fresh cilantro.
  5. Thinly slice 2 green onions.
  6. In a large bowl, combine the watermelon, green bell pepper, jalapeños, cilantro, and green onions.
  7. Add the juice of 2 limes, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
  8. Gently stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed (add more lime juice for extra zing or jalapeño for more heat).
  9. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving. Serve chilled with tortilla chips, grilled chicken, or fish.
