Cucumber and Watermelon Salad Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup minced fresh parsley
• 2 medium unpeeled cucumbers, washed, ends removed, sliced lengthwise then sliced crosswise
• 3 cups watermelon, cut in 1-inch cubes (about 1 pound)

Directions
Before you begin: Wash your hands.

1. Combine the lime juice, sugar, and salt in a 2-quart bowl; whisk together. Stir in parsley.
2. Add cucumbers; toss with a rubber spatula, coating all cucumber pieces. Add watermelon; fold in gently.
3. Cover and set aside. This will allow juice from the watermelon to mix with the other juices. Stir gently and let stand at room temperature 1 hour before serving.

Cooking Note
Choose a watermelon without a flat side and that sounds hollow when you knock on it. Look for a melon with a dull (not shiny) rind free of soft spots, gashes or blemishes.
