Watermelon Cucumber Salad

I'm always looking for healthy, tasty recipes to take to gatherings. I feel like I show up to BBQ's or church socials and there are about 50 desserts and no fruits or veggies. I made this delicious salad recently and wanted to share it with you. It is beautiful and tastes so yummy! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. It is the perfect take along to your next BBQ!


1 English cucumber, peeled, seeded, and cubed
1/2 of a seedless watermelon, cubed
1/2 a lemon juiced
1/2 thinly sliced red onion, soaked in cold water for 15-20 minutes
1/8 cup olive oil
Thinly sliced fresh mint to taste

I sliced the onions first and then let them soak while I chopped the remaining ingredients. Drain the onion, squeeze dry and toss with cucumber, melon, lemon juice, 1/8 olive oil, and mint. Chill until ready to serve. If desired, right before serving,
season lightly with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
