Ingredients:

• 4 cups watermelon

• 2 tomatoes (or 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes)

• 1 cup cucumber (cut into large chunks)

• 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves

• 1/2 cup red onion

• 1 yellow bell pepper (or orange bell pepper, cut into large chunks)

• 2 Tb lime juice (juice from one large lime)

• 1/2 tsp black pepper

• 1/4 tsp salt

• 1 jalapeño (optional)

Directions:

1. Place ingredients in a food processor and pulse until well combined. (You want it to still have a slightly chunky texture.)

2. If you want to add a little kick, you can add a jalapeño (with or without the seeds).

3. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes (up to one hour) for the flavors to come together.

4. Serve and enjoy!
