Honeydew Cucumber Salad with Mint and Dill

serves 6-8

​

The mixture of honeydew and the herbs is fantastic! So interesting and refreshing. It made me

want to create a Honeydew Mint cocktail! HAHA

Anyway, this would pair beautifully with grilled chicken breasts marinated in similar fresh herbs.

1 medium honeydew melon, peeled, seeded and cut into bite size chunks

​

2 cucumbers, peeled and cut into similar sized chunks

1/2 cup chopped red onion

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

4 ounces crumbled feta cheese (low fat is fine)

Simple Lemon Honey Vinaigrette*

Combine melon, cucumber, onion and herbs in a large bowl. Drizzle dressing and toss gently to

combine. Sprinkle feta cheese on top.

1 teaspoon honey

1/4 teaspoon coarse salt

1/4 cup olive oil
