  • a bunch of fresh basil leaves
  • balsamic glaze for drizzling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat a grill or fry pan to medium heat.
  • Brush both sides of each watermelon triangle with olive oil and season all sides with salt and pepper.
  • Add a drizzle of honey over each triangle and place them on the grill, grilling each side for about 2 minutes.
  • Remove and add a little more honey if desired.
  • Assemble salads by placing 2 watermelon triangles on each plate, then cover with a sprinkle of tomatoes, mozzarella and basil leaves.
  • Add some salt and pepper on top, then drizzle with balsamic glaze. Serve!

Notes

Balsamic Glaze is available in our store. However if you want to make it add 1 cup of balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to a pan, bring to the boil then reduce heat and simmer until reduced by 3/4. The glaze will thicken further once removed from the heat.
