SPICY WATERMELON SALSA

Spicy Watermelon Salsa image

I threw this together after an overzealous trip to the farmers market! My family loved it from the first bite. You can serve it right away but the best flavor is achieved after letting the salsa rest in the refrigerator for a few hours. -Andrea Heyart, Aubrey, Texas
