Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 cups watermelon seedless, cut in small dice
  • 2 cups cantaloupe cut in small dice
  • 2 cups honeydew melon cut in small dice
  • 2 cups Tuscan Melon cut in small dice
  • 1/3 cup onion red, minced
  • 1 jalapeño finely minced, optional
  • lime juice juice of a large lime, or more to taste
  • 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
  • 1/2 tsp chipotle chile powder

Instructions

  1. Toss everything together in a large bowl. Taste to see if you'd like to add more lime juice, or chile powder.
  2. The salad can be served immediately, or chilled until needed. I recommend chilling for an hour or so which will make the salad more refreshing. Juices will collect at the bottom of the bowl, so I gently toss again before each serving.
  3. Store leftover melon salad covered in the refrigerator. Best eaten the same day it's made.

Notes

  • *Substitute fresh mint.
