Cucumber Melon Salad

Cucumber Melon Salad is a little bit sweet and a little bit spicy. The perfect blend of flavors using sweet chili sauce, lime juice, cilantro, mint, and honey.

I am always looking for new ways to use fresh ingredients for salads. I especially like blending fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and fresh herbs.

I used an English cucumber and a fresh melon for this salad. English cucumbers are also called seedless cucumbers. However, I find that there are still a few small seeds so I scoop out the center of the cucumber before I slice it into half-moon slices. I rarely use regular cucumbers since the English version is sold almost anywhere and it’s actually easier on your digestive system.
