Charlotte Fekete of Athens, Georgia writes: I'm a junior in college, and I'm planning to go to cooking school after graduation. I've already had some experience decorating cakes and working for a caterer, but it was my mom who taught me how to cook. I've also learned a lot from reading magazines and cookbooks. Serve on its own for breakfast or with a scoop of sorbet or ice cream for dessert. Ingredients:
1 cantaloupe, halved, seeded, peeled |
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint |
2 teaspoons grated lime peel |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 1/2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger |
2 teaspoons honey |
Directions:
1. Cut cantaloupe into 3/4- to 1-inch cubes (about 5 cups) and place in large bowl. Add lime juice, mint, and lime peel; toss to blend. Mix in sugar, ginger, and honey. Refrigerate salad until ready to serve, stirring occasionally, up to 3 hours. |
