Colleen's Posterous

My friend Heidi explores lots of yummy food (mostly vegetarian) and posts about them on her blog - Living with a High Maintenance (Near) Vegan. So she commented on my adventures in Watermelon-Feta and pointed to her recipe for Cucumber-Watermelon-Tomato salad.

I tried it tonight and it was really good. The recipe is simple – cukes, tomatoes, watermelon, fresh basil and some Hoisin sauce and lime juice for dressing. I cut everything to make less salad because I am the only one in my house who would go near that combination of vegetables! But I do like onions so I added some red ones.

While I thought the Hoisin sauce was strange, I tried it and it was great because it reminded me of Asian sesame dressing. I added a little olive oil to thin out the sauce and reduce the amount of lime juice needed. It came out fine. Photo by Colleen above.

Thanks, Heidi!
