It is watermelon time, and this food is a blessing for health food enthusiasts! Watermelon is ant-inflammatory, alkaline-forming, and a natural diuretic, which more simply means it is a great way to flush out all of the bad guys! Here are two salad options, sweet or savory. While they look similar, they taste worlds apart, which will keep you from getting a bit bored this summer.
1/4 of a large watermelon
1 large handful on mint
1/2 a lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon honey (or agave)
sprinkle of crystallized ginger
Scoop the watermelon in large pieces and place in a large bowl. Chop mint and add to bowl. Add lemon juice, honey, and crystallized ginger. Enjoy!
Savory Basil-Balsamic Watermelon Salad with Tomato

1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt
Cut the watermelon and tomato into small cubes, and place in a large bowl. Chop basil and add to bowl. Add balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and salt. Enjoy!
