  2. In a small bowl, combine chili powder, lime seasoning (or fresh lime juice), and salt. Stir until well blended.
  3. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the watermelon fries. Toss gently until all fries are evenly coated.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix lime Greek yogurt with honey until well combined. Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of chili powder on top.
  5. Serve the watermelon fries on a platter alongside the honey lime yogurt dip.
