Three different kinds of melons make up this colorful fruit medley. Lime juice and soda, plus a hint of mint, season this pretty citrus salad from Sue Ross of Casa Grande, Arizona.
Ingredients:
3 cups watermelon balls
3 cups honeydew balls
2 cups cantaloupe balls
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup lime juice
sugar substitute equivalent to 1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons minced fresh mint or 2 teaspoons dried mint
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
2 teaspoons grated lime peel
1 cup diet lemon-lime soda
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the melon balls. In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, lime juice, sugar substitute, mint, orange peel and lime peel. Pour over melon; gently stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until chilled. Just before serving, add soda and gently stir to coat. Yield: 8 servings.
