I have already bought and consumed 2 watermelons this summer! I always hesitate in buying them because I don’t really like cutting them up. But this summer, I have a sweet boyfriend that doesn’t mind doing that for me! I see more watermelon in my future especially as hot as it is in Alabama! The first was a red one. It was so sweet and good! The next was a yellow one. I had never had yellow watermelon before so while my nephew was visiting, we decided to try one. It was quite tasty too! Watermelons are so refreshing especially in this heat. I have to put salt on mine though. How do you like to eat your watermelon?
I was just curious as to how many recipes were on www.tasteofhome.com that related to watermelon. I just typed in “watermelon” in the search field and got 108!!!. Of course some are watermelon shaped cookies and cakes. Here are a few that caught my attention…Just click on the picture to find the recipe. I love fruit salsa recipes and there were several with watermelon. I hope you enjoy these and go get yourself some WATERMELON!
Happy Cooking!

I agree, I do not like cutting them up either. I hate the mess they make, but LOVE the taste!!!
Yeah, well you see who cuts mine up for me. He does a great job and doesn’t make a mess!
Yes, got to have salt on them. Grew up eating both the red and yellow watermelons ( Dad grew watermelon truck patches) love them both
Thanks for sharing your memory!
Yes, definately salt on watermelon!
