Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1/2 cup cucumber
- 1/2 cup grapes
- 1 cup watermelon
- 10 mint leaves
- 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon honey
Preparation
- Wash and dice strawberries, cucumber and grapes. Dice watermelon. Shred mint leaves.
- Combine fruit and cucumbers in a bowl. Zest the lime over the fruit. Cut the lime in half and juice into a small bowl. Add the honey and mix well.
- Stir fruit with lime mixture, or if using a processor pulse until coarsely chopped. Mix in mint leaves.
- Let salsa sit overnight in the refrigerator.
Helpful hints
- Serve with low-sodium crackers or tortilla chips. Look for brands with the lowest amount of sodium.
- You may also serve with homemade pita chips. Split the pitas in half and cut each half into quarters. Spray with cooking spray and bake at 350º F for about 8 minutes. You may also sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar after you spray with cooking spray.
- Drain salsa through a fine sieve to remove fluid if you are on a fluid restriction.
