It’s watermelon season, and I couldn’t be more excited! This is one of my fave salads. It’s so simple, just watermelon and mint leaves. The olive oil, lime juice, and sea salt dressing adds the finishing touch and IT IS SO GOOD! The longer the watermelon marinates in the dressing, the more amazing it tastes.
INGREDIENTS (for an individual portion)
Seedless watermelon, cubed
Mint leaves, chopped into ribbons
Dressing:
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
½ tsp lime juice
Sea salt, to taste
Add fresh jalapeno if tolerated
MAKE IT
1. With a spoon, mix the watermelon and mint ribbons in a bowl. Add dressing, and mix again (gently). Serve chilled.
Optional: add a bit more salt all over if you’d like.
*If you make a larger portion, just keep in mind that ½ tsp of lime juice is considered low histamine (Dr. Beth O’Hara). If you add more than that, take that into account when serving (portions)*
