Ingredients
- about 1/4 of a small seedless watermelon, cubed (about 4c, at a wild guess)
- 1 avocado, cubed
- 1/2 a cucumber, cubed
- 2-3 Roma tomatoes, cubed
- 3-4tbsp fresh mint, chopped
- 2-3tbsp fresh basil, chopped
- 2oz goat cheese, crumbled
- Optional balsamic vinaigrette, though we didn't have our balsamic.
- sea salt, for sprinkling on individual servings
So, you know, toss those ingredients together and serve.
Thoughts: Our first impression was that this was going to be basically a deconstructed watermelon gazpacho. And I think that this description isn't far off. Somehow watermelons go very well with tomatoes and avocado. I don't know how much the cucumber adds, but it gives some color so why not? Claire says peel the cucumbers in the future.
This was delicious, though it would probably be even better with a vinaigrette. Claire said maybe a little more goat cheese and a little more avocado? It was just really nice and summery. I'm confident we will make this again. It's a great way to serve watermelon.
