[Coffee200am]

WATERMELON SALSA
*approximate amounts—vary to suit your taste

2 cups fresh ripe watermelon, diced
1/2 medium cucumber peeled and diced
1/2 cup sweet onion, diced (Walla Walla, Vidalia, Maui, etc)
1/2 jalapeno, seeded and diced fine
8 to 10 large sweet basil leaves, chopped fine
3 TBS fresh lime juice (add additional to taste)
1/2 tsp garlic salt

Combine all ingredients together, stirring gently, and serve immediately*. Best enjoyed while sitting in the grass, under a tree, barefoot.

*To prepare in advance, mix all ingredients except for the watermelon, and chill. Add diced, chilled watermelon just prior to serving. The watermelon exudes a bit of excess water if it stands long. Drain watermelon briefly in strainer before adding.

1/2 jalapeno, seeded and diced fine

That's really wimpy salsa. 1/2 a diced habanero would be understandable, but 1/2 a jalpeno?

I'm just funnin' with ya, that salsa sounds super (aafter being heated up a bit)

Thanks for sharing.
