Ingredients
Scale
Watermelon Fries
- 1 Half of a Large Watermelon
Vanilla Yogurt Dip
- ½ cup Vanilla Yogurt
- 1 cup Strawberries, stems and leaves removed
- 1 TB Honey
Instructions
- Slice Watermelon: Cut the watermelon in half, then slice into round discs approximately 1/2 inch thick for even thickness.
- Halve Discs: Cut each round disc across its middle to form two semi-circle shaped halves, preparing them for easy cutting.
- Cut Watermelon Fries: Use a crinkle cutter to slice the semi-circle watermelon pieces from one side to the other, creating fry-like strips.
- Remove Rind: Trim off any excess rind from the watermelon fries and compost or discard it.
- Prepare Yogurt Dip: Add vanilla yogurt, strawberries, and honey to a blender.
- Blend Dip: Blend the ingredients on low speed until smooth and creamy, adjusting honey to taste for sweetness.
Notes
- Use a crinkle cutter for fun, textured watermelon fries, but a regular knife works as well.
- Adjust honey quantity in the dip to suit your preferred level of sweetness.
- Serve immediately for the freshest and crunchiest fries or chill briefly before serving.
- Strawberries can be substituted with other berries or fruit of choice for the dip.
- Watermelon rind is edible but best removed to avoid bitterness in fries.
