Ingredients

Servings
  • ¼ watermelon medium sized
  • 1 jicama peeled
  • 1 cucumber medium
  • 2-3 Serrano peppers chopped into rings
  • lime as needed, juice from 2-3 limes
  • chili powder for dusting
  • hot sauce if desired, splash

Instructions

  1. Scoop the watermelon into tiny balls. I used a ¼ teaspoon measuring spoon for mine. Set them into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Chop the jicama into small squares roughly the same width as the watermelon balls. Set into the mixing bowl.
  3. Slice the cucumber into rings about ¼ inch thick, then quarter them. Into the mixing bowl they go.
  4. Add lime juice and toss to coat.
  5. Spear a watermelon ball, a slice of jicama, and a couple of cucumber quarters on toothpicks. Have fun and vary up the order.
  6. Set onto a serving plate and dust with chili powder.
  7. Top with sliced serrano peppers and serve. Splash with hot sauce, if desired!
