Main Ingredients

3 cups watermelon (cubed) Sweet and hydrating base full of vitamins.
3 pieces ripe peaches (sliced) Adds natural sweetness and softness. Choose organic for the best flavor and nutrient content.
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves (chopped) Refreshing aromatic touch; can substitute with basil if you prefer a different flavor.

1 pinch salt Balances sweetness and enhances flavor.

Method

Preparation

In a large bowl, gently mix 3 cups of cubed watermelon and 3 sliced ripe peaches. Allow the sweetness of the fruit to intermingle for a few minutes.

Dressing Preparation

In a smaller bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of lime juice, 1 tablespoon of honey, and a pinch of salt until well blended.

Assembly

Pour the dressing over the combined fruits. Gently toss the salad to coat the watermelon and peaches evenly.
Sprinkle the chopped mint leaves on top for a fresh finish. Serve immediately.

Notes

Chill your watermelon before cutting to maximize crispness. For added texture and flavor, experiment with toppings like feta cheese or nuts.
