Watermelon Avocado Salsa

  4.8 – 5 reviews  • Watermelon Salsa Recipes

With a fiery Sriracha mayo dipping sauce, this mouthwatering snack is quickly and effortlessly made in the air fryer. The smaller bay scallops are what I use for this. Longer cooking times and longer bacon strips are needed if you are using jumbo scallops.

Love this recipe! I did add one thing, cilantro, because you can’t have salsa without cilantro, can you? And I used a tiny bit of a jalapeño that was turning red. Really really good!

Update: we had this over blue fin tuna tonight and it was delish! I ended up eating the rest straight out if the bowl:)

I added some fresh coriander leaves, mint leaves, and sprinkled little ground black pepper for a different taste.

This is crazy good. The crisp flavour of the fresh hot peppers mixed with the cool, creamy flavour of the avocado mixes so well with sweet watermelon you’ll ask yourself why you haven’t been eating this for years. I made some with hot green peppers for a milder version and one with habaneros.I used limes instead of lemons (all I had) and used cilantro as well as parsley. All versions are delicious, cool and perfect on a hot day. I served them as appetisers on crostini. A keeper for the books! Thanks a million AGGIESANG23 for this recipe.

Just grab the nearest spoon and eat this right out of the bowl. Yes this is that good. I threw caution to the wind and added the whole habanero and I’m so glad I did. This has the perfect balance of flavors. For those that aren’t accustomed to the heat use jalapenos or green chiles in place of the habanero. This is perfect on grilled cod.
