Description
A vibrant, low-calorie summer snack combining juicy watermelon, greens, and fresh herbs. Perfect for hydration and refreshing light meals.
Ingredients
4 cups diced watermelon
6 cups mixed greens (arugula or romaine)
1 cup sliced English cucumber
1 cup halved strawberries
1 cup cubed cantaloupe
Crumbled chevre (or halal-friendly cheese)
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
Fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
Prep ingredients (dice watermelon, slice cucumber, wash greens)
Spread greens evenly on parchment paper
Arrange cucumber slices in concentric circles
Layer watermelon wedges in overlapping rows
Place cantaloupe cubes between watermelon slices
Sprinkle chevre in small mounds across the surface
Drizzle lime juice just before serving
Notes
Use fresh lime juice for brightness, not bottled
Freeze basil leaves for salad texture
Cubed watermelon keeps ingredients compact
Avoid overloading to prevent sogginess
Substitute cantaloupe with honeydew or strawberries
Replace chevre with feta (ensure halal processing)
