AIMEE FORTNEY'S WATERMELON PICO DE GALLO

This is another great one from my Great-Aunt Earlene.  You can serve this as an appetizer or as a topping for pork, fish, turkey, chicken ... you name it.  Jicama is a sweet, root vegetable.  This is just delicious!  Yum, yum, yummalicious!

1½ cups diced watermelon

½ cup diced jicama

½ cup chopped fresh cilantro

¼ cup diced honeydew melon

¼ cup diced cantaloupe

¼ cup diced red onion

2 Tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped (keep seeds in for heat)

½ teaspoon salt

In a large bowl, gently toss all ingredients to combine.  Try not to break up the pieces.  Serve with tortilla chips or as a compliment with chicken or anything that you would like!  I sauteed chicken breasts in 1 Tablespoon olive oil, a tiny bit of salt and pepper.  Simple and light for a great summer meal!
