fish tacos with watermelon guacamole
(1 rating)
Watermelon is the fruit of a plant originally from a vine of southern Africa. The watermelon fruit, loosely considered a type of melon, has a smooth exterior rind and a juicy, sweet, usually red interior flesh. These tacos take only minutes to make, yet are so yummy (and packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber) the whole family will love to build their own. The sweetness of watermelon pairs well with the spicy peppers. Feel free to try your own favorites, too, such as grated carrot or jicama.
