Culinary Corner: Grilled Watermelon Salad


Grilled Watermelon Salad

1 ea Seedless Watermelon ( I like the Yellow Flesh for Color)
1 ea Red Onion
3 ea Granny Smith Apples
¼ cup Olive Oil
TT Sea Salt
Dressing (this is an approximate recipe mixture adjust to taste)
½ Cup Balsamic Vinegar
¼ Cup Olive Oil
1 tsp Chopped Garlic
Sea Salt and Pepper to taste

Preparation:

Peel and slice the watermelon into slices and brush with Olive Oil and Season with Sea Salt and grill to mark the melon and then cut into chunks

Peel and Slice the apple thinly (toss with an acid water to prevent the browning of the apples)

Slice the onion paper thin and toss gently with the fruit

Combine the dressing and fold the fruits with the dressing season to taste. This can be served on a bed of greens or as a composed salad.

You can also add for another dimension of flavor chopped Cilantro or Chopped Chives

Give it a Try this is my favorite summer treat I serve often at home.
