WATERMELON MINT SALSA

I love embracing every season when it comes to entertaining as they each bring out different unique touches – this is especially true when it comes to food. Summer provides us with the most delicious, flavourful fruits and vegetables that are beyond mouth watering. Fall on the other hand has its own gems which help us get cozy for the winter time! As we only have a few weeks of summer left, I am taking full advantage of the seasonal fruit with this amazingly refreshing Watermelon Mint Salsa.

Watermelon is another one of my favourite summer fruits (among cherries and peaches!) and this salsa is perfect for a hot summers day to share with a crowd. Pair it with some nacho chips or mini pita breads and you have the perfect potluck dish!

This dip is extremely easy to make and extremely easy to finish in one sitting – I suggest doubling or tripling the recipe if you have a few people over!

We have both modified it many times to include various ingredients we love (see below for options) and it keeps getting better each time!
