Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh watermelon balls, or cubes
- 2 cups fresh cantaloupe balls, or cubes
- 2 cups fresh honeydew balls, or cubes
- ⅓ cup crumbled blue cheese
- ⅓ cup toasted walnuts, chopped
- fresh herbs, like chives or basil, for topping
- chive blossoms, for topping
lemon vinaigrette
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- kosher salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped herbs, like chives, basil, etc
Instructions
- Note: to toast the walnuts, I throw them in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and toss for 4 to 5 minutes, until golden and fragrant. Don’t leave alone - they burn easily! Then I let them cool and chop them.
- Combine the watermelon, cantaloupe and honeydew on a large bowl of plate. Pour the vinaigrette over and toss. Crumble on the blue cheese and toasted walnuts. Sprinkle on fresh chives or chive blossoms.
lemon vinaigrette
- In a bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, honey and mustard with a big pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk in the oil until the dressing is emulsified. Whisk in the herbs. Any extras of this stays great in the fridge for a few days - it just has to be whisked and stirred before using!
