Jake’s Favorite Mexican Roadside Inspired Summer Snack
Occasionally my sons and I stop after school and pick up the fruit snack the Mexican vendors sell on the side of the road.
My mother used to make this for us growing up and now I make our version at home for my kids. It's Jake's favorite.
Ingredients vary as this weekend, I used what was at hand in our refrigerator:
In a large bowl add,
Celery stalks cut to 1 1/2 bite sizes and Carrots sliced on a diagonal
Avocados cut into bite sized chunks and Cucumbers sliced
Add lots of fresh squeezed lime
Our home version we add Olive oil, Sea salt plus Mexican red pepper seasoning, we use "Tajin"
The Traditional Roadside dish would also include a blend of the following ingredients:
- Watermelon
- Melon
- Mango
- Jicama
It's healthy and refreshing on a hot summer day! Enjoy.
