Ingredients
- 1 cantaloupe
- 2 dozen strawberries
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon True Lime or juice of 1/2 lime
- 1/2 teaspoon New Mexico chile or other mild chile pepper powder
Instructions
- Cut the melon in half and remove the pulp. For large balls, use a small ice cream scoop, for smaller balls, use a melon baller. Remove the stems from the strawberries and cut them in half - leave any little ones whole.
- Mix the sugar, True Lime and chile pepper together.
- Pour the spice on the fruit, stir and mix it so all the fruit gets some of the spice, and then let it sit in the refrigerator for about a half an hour to macerate.
- Serve the salad in bowls with whatever juice the fruit has made. Encourage everyone to drink the juice at the bottom of the bowl - it's delicious!
