Salsa Time with Watermelon Salsa

Nothing says summer like fresh, sweet watermelon! It's always a perfect hydrating treat, and is always found at most picnics and barbecues! There are lots of ways to eat watermelon, but have you ever tried it in a salsa!? I created this recipe, because most of the ingredients are growing right in the school gardens around August-October. Salsa is a great ways for kids (and adults) to get their daily servings of fruits and vegetables! This recipe has been kid tested and approved at schools throughout Las Vegas.   It's always a favorite.  Have some fun in your kitchen with this one! Any time is good for salsa time!

Check out my Watermelon Salsa presentation which was part of Green Our Planet's Virtual Academy summer edition.  In my work as a Nutrition Chef with Green Our Planet, I teach students how to use produce that is growing in their school garden and the benefits of eating healthy. As schools were shut down due to COVID-19, this academy was created to continue to deliver garden and nutrition lessons to students.
