What recipes for a watermelon?

Asked by Iclamae (2414points) June 27th, 2010

We cut open a watermelon relatively late and now it isn’t particularly sweet. Not sweet enough to eat alone but not bad. Got any recipes for using it up?

Batido de Melon: Watermelon, sugar and ice in a blender, blend until iced is fully crushed. Yum.

Grilled Watermelon Salad

Brush some slices with olive oil and grill for just a minute or two. Dice into cubes and mix in some good goat cheese. Drizel with honey. Serve over romaine. Sprinkle with slivered, toasted almonds.

Pour Auslese into the melon and let it set for a couple of hours. Even better for cantelope.

Ooooh, baby.

Homemade freezer pops. Blend watermelon (minus seeds), corn syrup and a teeeny bit of vanilla. Freeze and enjoy.

I usually blend mine up with cut up tomatoes and bananas, and maybe some oranges.

I like my watermelon chilled and straight up.

As if something as perfect as watermelon needs any enhancement.

Watermelon lemonade! Put pieces of watermelon in a strainer, smush to get the juice out, add to homemade lemonade.

I just read in Sunday’s Parade magazine that you can drizzle slices of watermelon with honey and lime juice. dissolve the honey in the lime juice and drizzle, my nizzle!

Last night I put out a huge half of watermelon that was a bit mushy since I was working out of town all weekend.

My raccoon pal poked her head in the kitty door last night about 11 and gave me her cute little ‘grin.’ lol

Decided to offer up a cool treat on a hot night so ceremoniously set out the melon.

Nothing but a hollowed out rind this morning!

Watermelon…food of the Gods and then some! lol
