3 Reviews of Tomato and Watermelon Salad

Yep, it's me again. This is the most wonderful summer salad I have ever served. Made it again last night for company and used the white balsamic as I suggested in my last review.....it was perfect! The watermelon remained red and the cukes didn't turn brown. I am going to try using honeydew balls in it the next time I make it...I think it will add another color and dimension as heirloom tomatoes are hard to find in Myrtle Beach where we spend the summers. Thanks so much for a real 'keeper'.

    Yum — what a refreshing change from the usual "green salads" I serve during summer. I used white balsamic vinegar based on another review and it worked perfectly with this recipe; not too overpowering as regular balsamic vinegar might be. Since I couldn't find heirloom tomatoes, I added some melon balls to the recipe for color. For my tastes, I thought the salad was too sweet with them, so I took them out and tried the salad without the melon balls. It was perfect — a little sweet and a little tangy, and deliciously buttery from the avocados. I used all the herbs listed and each gave the salad a distinct and delicious flavor. This will be made many times again! Thanks for posting this winner.

    Refreshing and different. I used chives and cilantro because they were the only herbs I had on hand.
