How to make Cantaloupe Salsa

  1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.

  2. Taste and adjust flavors as necessary.

  3. Chill in the fridge for at least one hour to one day before serving. The longer it sits in the fridge, the better it will be.

Tips & Tricks

  1. Serve with tortilla chips or as a topping for grilled chicken or fish.

  2. Red onion sizes vary; if it's a small onion you may want a little more than 1/4. Taste and adjust.

  3. You may want more or less serrano peppers depending on your heat preference. With serranos, a little goes a long way. For a spicier salsa, leave the seeds in the serrano peppers.
