🍉 Watermelon Fries with Coconut Lime Dip

Ingredients:

For the Watermelon Fries:

• 1 small seedless watermelon, cut into “fries” (long thin sticks, like French fries)

• Optional garnish: Tajín seasoning, fresh mint, or lime zest

For the Coconut Lime Dip:

• 1/2 cup canned coconut cream (or thick coconut milk, chilled)

• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)

• Zest of 1 lime

• 1 tbsp fresh lime juice

• Pinch of salt

Instructions:

1. Prep the watermelon
   Slice the watermelon into fry-like sticks. Pat dry with a paper towel if they’re very juicy (so the dip sticks better).

2. Make the dip
   In a small bowl, whisk together coconut cream, lime juice, lime zest, honey (or maple syrup), and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy.

3. Chill (optional)
   Refrigerate the dip for 10–15 minutes to let the flavors blend and firm up slightly.

4. Serve
   Arrange watermelon fries on a platter. Sprinkle with a little Tajín or lime zest for extra flavor, if desired. Serve with the coconut lime dip on the side.

Tips:

• Vegan? Use maple syrup or agave instead of honey.

• Extra fun? Serve with toothpicks or mini forks and garnish with shredded coconut or chopped fresh mint.
