Zesty Melon Salad
- 6 cups assorted melon cubes
- 2 cucumbers, peeled, halved, seeded, and sliced
- 6–8 tablespoons lime juice
- Zest of 1 lime
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 serrano chili, seeded and minced (for a hotter salad, leave the seeds in)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions:
A lively looking and tasting salad, it's a sure winner at a picnic. Using a hollowed out watermelon as a serving dish makes an impressive, yet easy and inexpensive, serving dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melon and the cucumber.
- Mix the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl. Pour over the fruit and toss well to coat.
- Serve immediately, or if you like a zestier flavor, let the salad sit for up to 2 hours to allow the chili flavor to develop.
