Recipe Description
DESCRIPTION: This ginger melon salad recipe is great as a starter or just as a salad to accompany your meal. It’s refreshing and delicious.
This is a really simple salad made with fresh ingredients. I used galia melon (which is a cross between a honeydew and a cantaloupe melon) for this Paleo salad recipe, but you can use honeydew or cantaloupe melon instead.
The key ingredient in this dish is really the fresh ginger – it adds a zing to the flavor. Use extra virgin olive oil and sea salt to enhance the taste as well.
Recipe Directions
- Place everything into a salad bowl and toss well.
