Melon Bowl Salad/ Melon Bowl Dessert
Ever go to a picnic and have no bowls? Or ever just want to eat your bowl? Well when you use a half of a cantaloupe, feel free. Have been doing this for awhile now ever since a retired army/navy cook showed me. And yes he served in both branches.
Summer Salad
1 Cantaloupe or Honey Dew Mellon, cut in half
Broccoli slaw or cabbage slaw, undressed
Optional some nuts, raisins or sunflower seeds
Vinaigrette Salad dressing (I used Balsamic Vinaigrette)
Summer Dessert
Half the melon, scoop out the seeds... Now you have two bowls... Place a serving of your slaw in the scooped out part of the bowl, place some vinaigrette on it (about 2 Tablespoons), top with optional toppings.
1 Cantaloupe or Honey Dew Mellon, cut in half
1 Scoop of Vanilla Ice cream
1/2 Tablespoon of bourbon or dark rum or caramel sauce
Half the melon, scoop out the seeds... Now you have two bowls... Place a scoop of Ice Cream in each mellon half, top with bourbon, rum or caramel. Serve.
