The Zesty Watermelon Salsa is a refreshing and vibrant salad perfect for hot days. It combines sweet, juicy watermelon with crisp bell peppers, cucumber, and a kick of heat from jalapeño. The fresh lime juice adds a zesty tang, while the coriander leaves elevate the flavor with an aromatic touch. This salsa is a delightful and light addition to any meal or can be enjoyed on its own as a healthy snack.
