trice as nice

Course: Main Course

Ingredients

  • 1 container fresh watermelon chunks (buying it chopped saves time and you can use leftovers as a snack)
  • 10 cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tbsp fresh feta cheese
  • 1 tbsp raspberry vinaigrette salad dressing
  • .25 can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 pinch salt

Hollyized Steps:

  • Gather all ingredients to make this easy dish!
  • Next, slice each cherry tomato into four or five slices. Then pull approximately 10-12 watermelon chunks and slice into fives.
  • Combine the sliced cherry tomatoes and watermelon into a small mixing bowl.
  • Add in the tablespoon of dressing and the pinch of salt. The dressing helps bring out the subtle sweetness of the watermelon and tomatoes.
  • Then add in the feta and rinsed black beans for some protein. The beans should be rinsed to help remove all the gases — you’ll know they are all gone when the little white bubbles stop foaming.
  • Gently combine all ingredients in the mixing bowl. I used my salad tossers to simplify the stirring and keep my watermelon and tomato slices in tact. Doesn’t it look so colorful and delicious?!!?
  • Finally decide which of the three ways you want to serve your tasty dish! Serve in a bowl as a summer salad itself, use as a garnish to top a bagged salad, or finely chop the watermelon and tomato and serve on top of toasted french bread like a summer bruscetta! The options make this simple dish trice as nice! Enjoy!
