Melon, Cucumber and Watermelon Radish Salad with Honey Mint Lime Dressing
This simple and refreshing salad is perfect for summer entertaining. Sweet Solara melons are paired with cucumber, watermelon radish and goat cheese and topped with a zesty lime mint vinaigrette. Add some sliced Serrano peppers for an extra kick of heat!
Ingredients
- 1 small summer melon (or ½ a large melon such as honeydew) I highly recommend Pure Flavor Solara Mini Melon
- 1 English cucumber
- 1 large watermelon radish
- 1-2 Serrano peppers optional
- 1 handful microgreens optional
- 2 oz goat cheese
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 large lime, juiced
- ½ tbsp honey
- ¼ cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- salt & pepper
- Flaky sea salt optional
Instructions
- In a mason jar combine olive oil, lime juice, honey and mint with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place a lid on the jar and shake vigorously until well combined. Set aside.
- Use a mandolin or very sharp knife to thinly slice the cucumber and watermelon radish. Then cut the Solara melon in half, remove the seeds and outer peel, and thinly slice.
- Arrange the melon, radish and cucumber on a large platter. Top with thinly sliced Serrano pepper, micro greens and pinches of goat cheese.
- Drizzle the dressing over the salad (you may not need all of the dressing) and top with flaky sea salt if desired. Serve and enjoy!
