- 0.5 small watermelon
- 10 leaves fresh mint leaves
- 1 whole lime
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Cut the cantaloupe, honeydew, and watermelon in half and remove the seeds.
Step 2
Using a melon baller, scoop out balls of fruit from each type of melon and place them in a large mixing bowl. If a melon baller is unavailable, cut the fruit into bite-sized cubes.
Step 3
Chop the fresh mint leaves finely and add them to the bowl with the melon.
Step 4
Zest the lime using a fine grater, then cut the lime in half and juice it. Add both the lime zest and juice to the melon mixture.
Step 5
Drizzle the honey over the salad, then add the salt. Gently toss everything together until well combined, ensuring the fruit is evenly coated.
Step 6
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 7
Serve the melon salad chilled on individual plates or in a large serving bowl, garnished with additional mint leaves if desired.
