Melon Salad

Because melons are available just about all year round you cna make this anytime. You can use cantaloupe, honeydew, watermelon, casaba, or Santa Claus melons in this easy recipe. I use a melon ball scooper but you can cut into cubes.


1/4 cup honey
1 tsp. grated orange or lemon peel
1/2 cup orange juice
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh mint leaves
6 cups assorted melon balls or cubes

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except melon balls and whisk thoroughly. Place melon balls in large serving bowl and pour honey mixture over.

Toss gently to coat and serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until serving time.
