Leeny's watermelon salad recipe

Ingredients

 1/2 Watermelon
1 cantaloupe
1/2 Jicama
1 English cucumber
cilantro
1 lime
Fresh cracked pepper
2 t. Tajin seasoning (or 1 t. chili powder and 1 t. salt)


Cut jicama in half and peel away the thick skin. Cut into thin, medium length pieces, about 1 1/2 to 2 inches. Place in large bowl.

Cut watermelon in half. Remove rind and cut melon into thin, medium length pieces.

Chop cucumber into smaller, bite size pieces. 

Cut cantaloupe and cucumber into bite sized pieces and add to the bowl. 

Mix up the fruit in the bowl and add the juice of one lime and about 2 Tablespoons of chopped cilantro.  Sprinkle Tajin seasoning over the top and mix again. If you don't have Tajin, use salt and chili powder instead.   Finish with a few shakes of fresh ground pepper.
