Watermelon Mint Salad
Keep your meals fresh and crisp with this berry salad, yes you heard right… fun fact, watermelon are berries.
“Scientifically called pepos, these fruits fall into a specific category of berry—one with a tough rind, multiple flat seeds and pulpy flesh. Pepos are also indehiscent. While we wish that meant they showed too much skin, the term actually refers to a pod or fruit that doesn't split open when it's ripe.”- Food & Wine
