A few weeks ago I made this melon salad based on this recipe and absolutely loved it! I have a slight obsession with mint anyway, but it never occurred to me to mix fresh mint with fruit! Come to find out, it’s really, really good! I decided to simplify things a fews weeks ago and just try a watermelon and mint mix, and let me tell you: it did not disappoint! This dish is refreshing and tasty; it’s the perfect summer picnic dish too!
Not to mention… two ingredients! That’s it! (The original recipe calls for honey, too but I think the watermelon is sweet enough on its own.) By the way, this recipe was really just an excuse to bust out my melon baller – I love that thing! Do you have one?
Instructions:
Simply scoop the watermelon and sprinkle the mint! Ta da!
If you really want to get fancy you could soak the watermelon pieces in rum, add a little lime and call this a mojito watermelon salad! Definitely let me know if you make this, I think you’ll like it!
