INGREDIENTS

Salad:

• 1 mini-size watermelon, seedless

• 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped

Dressing:

• Juice of 1 lime

• 2 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil

Balsamic Vinaigrette

• 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Slice watermelon into half. Using a melon scoop, scoop melon into balls. If you don’t own a melon scoop, carve off the watermelon skin and dice melon into cubes. Place into a large salad bowl.

2. Add chopped basil and sliced red onion.

3. In a separate small bowl, mix olive oil and lime juice. Pour over salad and gently mix.

4. In a small pot over high heat, whisk together balsamic vinegar and sugar. Reduce until it is thick like a syrup. Drizzle over top of the salad. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Note: It is best to consume salad within the same day.
