Alright, so I feel like I’m cheating with this idea but as soon as I tasted pomegranate I thought, “YUM! This would go great with watermelon!”
The funny thing is, and you aren’t going to believe this, I happen to have a watermelon in the middle of December. Strange I know, but the mini ones were on sale and we (the husband, the toddler and I) all LOVE watermelon.
Ingredients
- 1 pomegranate
- 1 small watermelon (about 3 cups of balls)
Instructions
Clean and prepare the pomegranate as described here.
Cut the watermelon into small cubes or use a melon baller.
Combine in a bowl and serve!
The flavors are awesome together. I can see this becoming a new summer favorite with a sprinkle of fresh mint leaves!
P.S. Notice the little toddler finger scooping out the salad. He really couldn’t get enough.

Hi Roni - the salad looks good (we've currently got no watermelons in these here parts - Montana!) but just wanted to say that I watched your video on the quesadilla and it was just really nice to actually see and hear you. I mean, photos are fine, but it is nice to hear your voice and see your expressions, etc. And I agree with one of your other commenters about having a show. You need to sign up for that Next Food Network Star contest whenever they do it again! Thanks - and I will look forward to more videos and recipes here at Green Lite Bites!

LOL
I didn't think of that! I'm totally crossing seasons, aren't I? ;~)

The only bummer about that is that pomegranates are in season only from September to December. And watermelon's are in season from about mid July to MAYBE September. I'm just a food geek who doesn't like to eat out of season...or not locally grown food. So I guess it's MY problem. :o)
