I first heard about using watermelon in a salad when I had the pleasure to meet Meredith Brokaw in 2008. She has a fantastic cookbook called “Big Sky Cooking.” This is not her recipe but I can say I definitely got the idea from her! Anyway, I love the unique flavors here. Such a healthy, simple, and very refreshing salad.
NOTE: What is great here, is you can make all of this ahead of time, but keep the dressing separate and then just before serving, toss the salad with the dressing.
Another great idea here is you can save the watermelon shell and then put the finished salad in the melon as a bowl. Makes for a great presentation!
