Cantalope Salad Recipe
Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups (approximately) cantaloupe balls
1/4 cup mint leaves, packed
1/4 cup lemon juice (about 1 and 1/2 lemons)
Olive oil drizzle
chopped red onion (optional, but gives it a little spice)
Directions:
– Next, using a melon baller, scoop about 2 cups of cantaloupe into a large mixing bowl and set aside. If you don’t have a melon baller you can always cut up the cantaloupe into about 1-1 1/2? squares.
– blend mint and lemon juice in a blender until mint is finely chopped.
– Pour a SMALL amount at a time of the mixture and drizzle olive oil over the cantaloupe pieces and combine well. Do this a little at a time to make sure you get the right flavor.
Some like more mint flavor and some don’t… palates are different. You can be the judge, it’s your salad. 🙂
– Serve right away, or cover and refrigerate until needed.
