Ingredients
- 0.5 whole Cantaloupe
- 0.5 whole Honeydew melon
- 0.5 whole Watermelon
- 10 large Fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Start by cutting each of the melons (cantaloupe, honeydew, and watermelon) into halves. Use a melon baller to scoop out melon balls from each half, placing them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Continue the process until you have enough melon balls from each of the three types of melons.
Step 3
Chop the fresh mint leaves finely, and add them to the bowl with the melon balls.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the lime juice, lime zest, and salt.
Step 5
Drizzle the lime mixture over the melon balls and mint in the mixing bowl.
Step 6
Gently toss the salad using a large spoon or your hands to ensure the lime dressing coats all the melon balls evenly.
Step 7
Transfer the salad into a serving dish. You can garnish it with a few whole mint leaves for extra presentation.
Step 8
Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
