Watermelon Salsa
Summer's here and the eating is easy with my watermleon salsa popped with chili and lime. It's a healthy low calorie refresher that works as a side dish for barbecues, or an easy appetizer with chips.

Ingredients
- 4 cups seedless watermelon, cut in small dice
- 1/2 cup minced red onion
- 1/2 cup red bell pepper, cut in small dice
- 1/2 cup yellow bell pepper, cut in small dice
- 1/2 cup orange bell pepper, cut in small dice
- 1/2 cup green bell pepper, cut in small dice
- 1/2 jalapeno, minced, optional
- 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice, or more to taste. I like my dressings on the acidic side, but you may want to add a little more or a little less.
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp chili powder, or more or less to taste
- coarse salt, to taste
Instructions
- Toss everything in a bowl and taste to adjust the lime juice, salt, or chili.
- Serve immediately, or keep refrigerated until ready to serve. I recommend not making it more than a few hours in advance.
