- DIFFICULTY: EASY
- 45 MINS
Ingredients
Serves: 6
Cantaloupe, Black Sesame and Honey over Yogurt
- 1 Ripe Cantaloupe, Cut as Desired
- Local Greek Yogurt or Yogurt/Yogurt Alternative of Choice
- Local Honey
- Black Sesame Seeds (*Can also substitute other seeds/nuts for crunch)
- Pink Himalayan Salt
- Fresh Mint (*Fresh basil would also pair well with this for a more savory twist)
Method
Fresh cantaloupe is certainly delicious on its own, but if you are looking for an easy recipe to “dress it up” a bit this one combines a handful of simple yet bold flavors. In this dish, I pair the ripe cantaloupe with local plain yogurt, local wildflower honey, homegrown mint, black sesame seeds, and pink Himalayan salt for a simple yet versatile flavor profile. You can easily swap in any seasonal melon for this dish. Perfect as a dessert, light lunch, snack, or appetizer.
Enjoy!
