Watermelon: Fire and Ice Salsa
I am on Weight Watchers.
Fruit is 0 points.
I bought a watermelon.
It’s on the counter — where it’s been for a week.
I just remembered Fire and Ice Salsa, one of my favorite Loaves & Dishes recipes from several years ago, and now it’s all I can think about. It’s joining me for dinner tonight. As the entree.
You might not think “spicy” and “watermelon” should be in the same sentence. It kind of requires a leap of faith. But no one has wrinkled their noses at it — ever.
Perhaps Fire and Ice Salsa doesn’t fit into your dinner plans, but it would make a crowd-pleasing presence at any summer picnic — July 4 for instance, or a graduation party, a work pot luck. Or you can just eat it for dinner.
