Happy watermelon day! There's so many recipes you can create with watermelon. Have you ever grilled watermelon? I made a salad a few years back for the 4th of July. I used star cookie cutters.
Watermelon with feta? Watermelon smoothies. So healthy and yummy.
A slice of ice cold watermelon is so refreshing on a hot day.
How about watermelon Lemonade?
Chilled Gazpacho with watermelon
- 1 PureHeart mini seedless watermelon, diced
- 1 cucumber, peeled
- 1 small red bell pepper, chopped
- ¼ red onion
- 10 sprigs cilantro
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil, divided
Preparation
In an non-reactive container, combine watermelon, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro sprigs, balsamic, salt and 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.
Allow fruit and vegetables to macerate for at least 4 hours (up to overnight) in refrigerator.
In
a food processor, blend macerated mixture to desired consistency (can
be made smooth, or process less for a chunkier soup). This can be done
in batches, depending on the size of your food processor. Serve chilled
with floating garnish of extra virgin olive oil.

ReplyDelete¡Qué alegrÃa!, en tu publicación anterior no pude insertar mi comentario, veo que ya se ha solucionado el problema. Me encantan los gazpachos de todo tipo pero reconozco que no lo he preparado nunca con sandÃa, si con melón, me quedo la receta y no tardaré en probarla. Qué bonitos tus platos de sandÃa y la manera de cortarla en forma de polos. un beso grande
