MEXICAN-STYLE FRUIT SALAD
Katie loved visiting the various Mexican-American fruit stands during her time in Los Angeles. The vendors would sprinkle fruit cups with fresh lime juice and the popular chile-lime salt Tajin. Inspired by those stops, she created this larger format fruit salad that has a hint of spice. The result is a refreshing and irresistible snack.

WATERMELON BASKET FRUIT SALAD
Where I come from a fruit salad is fresh fruit cut up and mixed in a bowl with some colorful berries. When I moved west I had to plan a buffet so I decided to carve a watermelon and asked some of my volunteers to make fruit salad so I could continue filling the watermelon basket with fruit throughout the evening. Well, I got everything but what I thought! I got jello molds, towering quivering things with berries and cool whip all over them; I got a berry and mayonaise and brown sugar concoction, and absolutely nothing I could fill my watermelon with. One of the gals said I should have asked for fresh fruit cut up and on a plate. duh. Now I know. Honestly, I never saw such amazing creations. They were all eaten up and once the watermelon balls were gone I just tossed my carved melon. Wah....

Steps:
- Wash and dry all the fruit.
- With a large veggie peeler/melon carver cut the top third of the watermelon off making a decorative edge of either scallops or peaks. (I wish I had premium so I could post pix). When I was a kid I drew my decorative edge on the melon and carved it with a boning knife but it is faster and easier if you get a tool designed for carving. Scoop the melon out with a small cookie scoop and set aside.
- Cut the cantaloupe into 8ths and cut the rind off. With the french fry blade of your food processor, shred the cantaloupe and set aside. I learned this from Greg Patton host of Pattonly Cooking sponsored by Cuisinart.
- Cut the honeydew in half and seed it. With a melon baller make itty bitty balls and set aside. You can cheat and slice this in your food processer on the thickest blade.
- Cut the pineapple into 8ths and core it. Cut into chunks and set aside.
- Mix melons and pineapples together in a large bowl.
- Quarter the strawberries and mix with the remaining berries and grapes. Do not mix in the raspberries or they will be pulverized.
- Layer the fruits in the watermelon basket, first a layer of the melons and pineapple, then the berries then some raspberries. Save most of the raspberries for the top layer. Continue layering until your melon basket is full and save the remaining fruit in a baggie so you can re-fill the melon basket.
- That's all there is to it! You can carve handles on your basket or leave it open which works better on a buffet as it is easier to access the fruit.
- To make it extra fancy whip up an egg white and dip clusters of grapes in it, then roll in superfine sugar and let dry on waxed paper. Secure the little grape clusters in the edging of the melon basket with a toothpick. I did this for my mother once when she had her lady friends over and it really wowed them as a centerpiece.
- Hope you try this! Have fun doing it with your kids.

Steps:
- Take a sharp knife and slice a small thin piece off the bottom of your melon.
- This will allow the finished basket to sit flat on a plate or table without rolling.
- Next, take the tip of your knife (you can also use your pumpkin decorating tool out if you have one) or garnishing tool and score the watermelon in half, horizontally.
- Then mark a strip of about 1 1/2- 2" wide that will form the handle of your basket.
- If you have trouble seeing the score lines, you might want to try using a marker.
- Next, take your garnishing tool and start cutting around the melon on the lines.
- The garnishing tool naturally makes V shaped cuts, which makes doing a basket like this a breeze.
- If you do not have a garnishing tool, use a small knife and make the V cuts one side at a time.
- You could also forget the V and make straight cuts.
- To make separating the melon easier, and the finished product neater, turn your garnishing tool over, and go over the cuts in the opposite direction.
- Carefully separate the cut sides from the body of the watermelon.
- If you used a marking pen and there are any residual marks left, a handy way to get rid of them is to use a new emory board and gently sand them off.
- Take a melon baller and hollow out the inside of the watermelom.
- After removing all the edible parts, take a large spoon and gently scrape out the sides of your"basket".
- Be care not to scrape too thinly on the handle, as you want it to have some stability, even though you will never try to carry it this way.
- Mix the watermelon balls (or pieces, if you don't have a melon baller) with other ripe fresh fruits.
- To make the handle garnish, thinly slice lemons, limes or oranges and use a toothpick to affix them, along with a grape, melon ball or cherry, to the watermelon.
- Keep any extra fruit in a ziplock back and refill as it goes down!

Steps:
- With a large, sharp knife, remove the top 1/4 section of the watermelon. With a melon baller, scoop flesh from inside of watermelon, removing as many seeds as possible. Leave 1/2 inch of flesh inside the shell of the watermelon. Scoop cantaloupe and honeydew in the same manner, removing as much flesh as possible, and discarding the rinds. Refrigerate fruits separately until ready to assemble.
- In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring water and sugar to a boil. Remove from heat, and continue stirring until sugar has completely dissolved. Add lemon zest, and set aside to cool.
- To serve, place watermelon balls, cantaloupe, honeydew, oranges, pineapple, strawberries, and grapes, in a large mixing bowl. Pour syrup over, and toss thoroughly. Transfer mixture to watermelon bowl, and serve. Set aside any fruit mixture that will not fit. There will be enough fruit to refill the bowl.
