Equipment

  • cutting board
  • Sharp long knife

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cubed cantaloupe If you want to make it into a salad, the shape does not really matter but if you want to make the checkered look like I did, you will want the fruit cut into squares.
  • 2 cups cubed watermelon If you want to make it into a salad, the shape does not really matter but if you want to make the checkered look like I did, you will want the fruit cut into squares.
  • 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves Washed and chopped.
  • 1/2 lemon Juiced.
  • 1/3 cup olive oil

Instructions

  • Cut the fruit if you did not already do so. If you are making a salad the shape does not really matter but if you are doing a checkered board like I did in the photos, you will want slim small squares. Add the fruit to a plate or in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil, mint and lemon juice.
