If you’re looking for a slightly different fruit salsa for summer entertaining, you have to try this Spicy Watermelon Salsa. The contrast of sweet and spicy is so good, especially on a salty tortilla chip.

I’m obsessed with watermelon. TOTALLY obsessed. Sometimes on a hot summer day, I cut up a whole watermelon and eat nothing for supper but a HUGE bowl of watermelon. It is so good and so hydrating.

 
I’m also obsessed with fruit salsas during the summer. A sweet salsa on a salty, crispy tortilla chip = HEAVEN!

 
The key to this Spicy Watermelon Salsa is chopping everything up very, very small so that it is easy to scoop and you get all the flavors in one bite.
To compliment the watermelon I add cucumber, red onion, and yellow bell pepper. Just a little of each though. I like this salsa to be mostly watermelon. A few jalapenos and some red pepper flakes get added for some heat. A little lime juice and a bit of honey get added for flavor, plus a whole lot of cilantro (if you like it).
