Melon With Sweet Lime Dressing Food

MELON STRAWBERRY SALAD WITH LIME MINT DRESSING

Steps:

• To make the dressing, whisk together 1/4 cup lime juice, 1 tsp agave, 1/8 to 1/4 tsp salt. Then add in 3 tbsp chopped mint and 1 1/2 tbsp chopped basil and stir gently. Set aside while prepping the rest of the ingredients so the mint and basil have a chance to flavor the dressing.
• For the salad, use a melon baller to carve balls out of watermelon, honeydew, and cantaloupe melon. You should keep scooping until you have 3 cups of watermelon balls, 2 cups of cantaloupe balls, and 2 cups of honeydew balls. Don't discard scraps - either eat them on their own, or add them to a smoothie or juice!
• Slice the strawberries lengthwise into thin round circles. Add the strawberries and balled fruit to a mixing bowl and pour the dressing over the top. Gently stir to coat fruit, and then transfer to a serving bowl or platter. Store in the refrigerator until ready to eat. Enjoy!

• For the melon medley: Evenly distribute melon cubes on a large serving platter so that the variety of colors is visible. Spread cream out on top of melons with a spatula and sprinkle with salt. Garnish the melons with the basil clusters and mint leaves. Serve immediately.
