Over the years I have made a few watermelon recipes, but I’m always looking for new ones. I decided it was time to do a watermelon themed round up so that I could find some new watermelon recipes to try and you could too.
I love watermelon! It is my favorite summer fruit. I love to go to Detweiler’s Farm Market and pick up containers of their cubed watermelon, it is sooo good. Ron doesn’t like watermelon so there is no sense in buying a whole watermelon, so it’s worth it to me to buy the pre-cut variety.
