Enjoy Fresh from Florida watermelon this summer with this easy Watermelon Salsa recipe via flouronmyface.com #ad #FreshfromFlorida #IC

Back when I was a child the best part of Summer was when my mom would buy a sweet Florida watermelon.

It was torture when she would shove that huge watermelon in the refrigerator and we had to wait for it to get cold before we could have some. Cold watermelon is like heaven on a hot Florida Summer day.

Biting into a big wedge of that sweet bright red flesh and feeling the sweet sticky watermelon juice run down my chin is a treasured memory. Now I get to watch my grandkids enjoy the same summer time pleasure. The kids in my family inhale an enormous amount of sweet juicy watermelon during the summer months.

Now as a Grammy I am a little neater when I eat watermelon. It's so much easier to keep that juice from running down my chin when I cut the watermelon up in chunks.

When Florida watermelons are in season I like to make fun recipes like this Watermelon Salsa. The kids prefer their watermelon in wedges but the adults love digging into a bowl of sweet and spicy Watermelon Salsa with our favorite chips.

Florida Summer Produce

During the summer, there are many kinds of great Fresh from Florida produce available. During the summer months, you can find Fresh from Florida Blueberries, Tomato, Sweet Corn, Watermelon and Seafood available at your favorite grocer.

Keep an eye out for the Fresh from Florida label so you can enjoy some of Florida's summer produce bounty.

Florida watermelon is just one of a long list of fresh Florida summer produce we enjoy during the summer months. Florida Blueberries, Tomato, Sweet Corn, Watermelon and Seafood all show up on our tables during the summer in one way or another.

A summer bbq just wouldn't be the same without Florida Sweet Corn, sliced Florida tomatoes for our burgers and icy cold watermelon wedges and this Watermelon Salsa to snack on while we are waiting on the grill to heat up.
