Chunky Watermelon Salsa

Its so hot this evening. Absolutely I don’t feel like cooking or staying in kitchen. For me, Summer means a season for fresh, simple, quick easy no cook food. After coming home from work, I feel like having something little crunchy, tangy, sweet etc., etc., and I also love to bring more colors on my plate. So I made this for my evening snack.

Make a slit in Jalapeno Pepper, Remove the seeds in slice into small cubes. Peel Mango, cut into small cubes. Remove the shell and seed in Avacado, chop into small cubes.
