Watermelon salad of four built -in
A simple, quick throw together that is gluten -free, without dairy products and vegan.
I love how juicy watermelon is. It is delicious with the royal verby, the tenderness of the lime and the acidity of the balsamic. So simple, so good. A wonderful summer classic.
Ingredients
1 “2 medium watermelon (about 7-8 cup cubes)
1 “4 cup fresh lime juice
1 cup fresh basil, chopped
Balsamic glaze
Optional additives: cucumber, strawberries, slice
Instructions
Cut the watermelon into about 1 cubes. Cut the basil. Add lime juice. Spray on balsamic. I recommend adding the balsamic glaze just before service. The glaze will eventually absorb watermelon and reduce its freshness. Spray as much as you want.
ADD: This is a very light dish, so serve as a side with green salad and roasted chicken or egg or tuna salad for a fresco dinner. The addition of slice will give the salad a salty cream. Use only if the dairy is tolerated.
Strawberry salsa
Modified by cookieandkate.com
The flavors in this salsa are so unexpected. It is sweet, salty and spicy in every bite. It’s perfect.
Ingredients
Juice and heat of 1 medium lime
1 ½ teaspoon of honey or maple syrup
1 strawberry pint, boat and in cubes
1 Jalapeã ± O Pepper, sowed and chopped (use a smaller jalapeã ± o for less heat or leave in some seeds for more heat)
– small red onion, chopped
 ½ cup chopped fresh coral
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
bite of finely salt
Instructions
Mix lime juice and star, honey and salt. Combine chopped strawberries, jalapeã ± o, onion and coriander. Add pepper to try and mix well. Adjust the spices according to the needs.
If your strawberries are not sweet enough, add a more honey touch. If you need more tart, add a little more lime juice. Bring the flavors and add a little more salt. If the combined salsa sits for some time, the flavors will get married and the plate becomes more juicy. Let the ingredients mix for 30 minutes to make a big difference.
ADD: Grill chicken breast, shrimp or other fish and use strawberry salsa as a topper. Serve with a simple green salad. Vegetarian; Put the salsa in a simple quinoa bed. Delicious! This is also a large appetizer served with almond crackers.
