Ricotta salata is a crumbly, salty cheese that provides a nice counterpoint to the sweetness of the watermelon and grapes. If you can't find it, you can use feta, which is more pungent but just as tasty. Ingredients:
2 cups (1-inch) cubed peeled seedless cucumber |
2 cups (1-inch) cubed seedless watermelon |
2 cups halved red grapes |
3/4 cup peeled, cubed asian pear (about 1 pear) |
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream |
1 tablespoon honey |
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lime rind |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper |
1/3 cup (3 ounces) crumbled ricotta salata cheese |
Directions:
1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine sour cream, honey, rind, juice, and pepper in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Pour sour cream mixture over fruit mixture; toss well to coat. Sprinkle with cheese.
