A Note About Watermelon

Due to its high water content, lets off a lot of juice as it sits. It is best served within an hour or two of making. If it becomes too watery, you can just pour off the excess liquid.

A Note About Papaya

Papaya salsa does not keep well. Enjoy immediately.

Mixing Fruits:

Salsas made with mixed fruits (with the exception of citrus) should be served within an hour of two of mixing together.

To Make ahead:

We liked this salsa best within the first 24 hours, but it does last three days. The fruit, onion and cilantro starts to break down after that. If you want to ensure that your salsa is not watery but want to prep this recipe ahead:

1. Layer the ingredients (except salt and lime) into a re-sealable container and refrigerate up to 1 day ahead.
2. Stir it together with the salt and lime just before serving.
