A deliciously simple Mexican summer snack, crunchy, tangy, and with a kick.
Ingredients

1 lime, juiced
Chile powder or Tajin or any Mexican fruit seasoning powder to taste
Sea salt to taste
Optional: 1 jalapeño or red chili, finely sliced or chopped

Notes
I like to add more chile powder as I eat. Some bites have more and other’s less chile, it’s up to you.
Oh, and if you want to spice this up a little bit, you may want to add some chopped fresh chilies to the mix. It adds another layer of heat, and makes it extra tasty.
Don’t forget to drink the juice left at the bottom, it’s the best part.
