Watermelon Basil Salsa

Difficulty:

Cool off with this Watermelon Basil Salsa, a refreshing blend of sweet watermelon, crisp cucumber, fresh herbs, and a hint of jalapeño. Light, colorful, and bursting with summer flavor, it’s the perfect appetizer for serving with tortilla chips or topping tacos, seafood, and grilled favorites.

Add watermelon, bell pepper, cucumber, red onion, basil, mint, and jalapeño to a large bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together lime zest, lime juice, agave, salt, and pepper.

Pour dressing over the watermelon mixture and gently toss until combined.

Let sit for 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Serve chilled with tortilla chips, grilled meats, seafood, or as a topping for tacos.

Enjoy!
