Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 5 cups watermelon, cubed
- 1 ½ cups yellow cherry tomatoes, or grape tomatoes, halved
- 1 small red onion, chopped
- ½ cup freshly torn basil leaves
- ¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoons pure honey
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Use rubber spatula to gently fold together until well combined.
- Cover and chill no more than 1 hour before serving (watermelon salad is best served immediately.)
Notes
- Important: Keep watermelon salad tightly sealed and chilled until ready serve.
- Watermelon salad will produce excess liquid if it sits too long; it's best served right away. If you must chill for awhile before serving, be sure to lightly toss again before serving.
- Feel free to add roasted walnuts, pine nuts, or feta cheese to this salad. The options are endless!
- Watermelon salad is amazing served with any grilled dinner. Try serving with Juicy and Tender Grilled Chicken Breast and Light and Fluffy Naan.
