Grilled Watermelon Salad



Have an oversized watermelon in your house and tired of eating it raw? I NEVER would have thought cooked watermelon would be a good idea, but this turned out great! Even my soon-to-be kindergartener (who initially took one look at it and said, "Momma, I am NOT eating warm watermelon!") gobbled it up and asked for more after we coaxed her into taking just one bite. Who knew it was possible to make watermelon juicier and sweeter than it is raw!!

Grilled Watermelon Salad


Ingredients:

-Fresh cut wedges of watermelon
-Spring greens
-Feta cheese
-Balsamic vinegar
-Olives (optional)

1. Sear the watermelon on both sides on the grill (about 2 minutes on each side).

2. Serve topped with spring greens, feta cheese, and sprinkled with balsamic vinegar. (Can add olives if you so desire - my family does not!).
