Get your dancing shoes on because here’s a recipe for watermelon salsa! (oops wrong salsa, but hey this recipe is so good your taste buds will be dancing!)
With summer in full swing, nothing hits that hot summer’s day craving like a refreshing, juicy watermelon. Watermelon season has finally arrived! This sweet fruit is incredibly hydrating, containing over 90% water and packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and amino acids. Watermelon has one of the highest lycopene levels of all fruits and vegetables. Lycopene is a phytonutrient, which means it is a chemical created by plants that serve many functions to protect the plant. Lycopene gives watermelon its vibrant red color and has been proven to slow cancer growth, promote eye health, and lower blood pressure. With all these benefits, watermelon is the perfect ingredient to add to your diet! With watermelon juice, salads, and sorbets, there are many creative ways to incorporate this fruit. This salsa recipe is a fun, summer twist on classic salsa that provides a sweet and savory taste. The perfect accompaniment to bring to picnics, parties, and more!
