Directions
Step 1
Cut the honeydew melon in half and scoop out the seeds using a spoon.

Peel and finely grate the fresh ginger to yield 1 teaspoon. Add it to the lime and honey mixture and whisk again.

Pour the dressing over the honeydew melon in the mixing bowl. Gently toss to coat the melon evenly with the dressing.
