Notes
- The melon is supposed to be ‘balled’ using a melon baller but it’s just for aesthetic purposes. Feel free to cut it up into bite size pieces instead.
- Spinach is a good substitute for the arugula or kale.
- I prefer an immersion blender to make the dressing but a small blender would work as well.
