BASIL TEMPTATION MELON SALAD




My kids saw me putting basil leaves in this fruit salad.

“What? I’m NOT eating that. That vegetable does not belong in this fruit salad.”

Well, “ha, ha” kiddos. The joke is on you. Because basil, you see, is an herb, not a vegetable. And it’s going in the salad. So there.

That salad was gone pretty quick. The kids liked it, in spite of the green addition.

See? Mother does know best!


Recipe

Temptation Melon, 1 – seeded and cut into 1 inch pieces
Basil leaves, chopped – 1 C
Nectarines, pitted and chopped – 4
Honey (or demerara) – 1 T
Cinnamon, ground – ½ teaspoon


Combine all fruit, then sprinkle with honey/demerara and cinnamon. Stir lightly and eat quickly!

ENJOY IN GOOD HEALTH!
