Watermelon Margaritas

.



Certain foods are synonymous with summer and for me, watermelons are at the top of that list.  Nothing is more satisfying on a hot summer afternoon than a generous slice of cool, refreshing watermelon.  You can simply enjoy it on its' own or serve it cubed with feta and arugula drizzled with a balsamic glaze.  Either way, you really can't go wrong.  That is why this past weekend, as I ripped open a bag of tortilla chips and poured the salsa, I was inspired to whip up this recipe.  They were such a breeze to make, I even made a virgin version for my eleven year old daughter.  Needless to say, she was thrilled.  Did I mention that they are a mere 105 calories and are fat and cholesterol free?  Plus, watermelons are high in fiber and vitamins A and C.  What's not to love about that?  Salud!

  3. i've been making homemade margaritas this summer too! i'm not much of a watermelon fan myself, but am always willing to try a new recipe, and the virgin version is a great idea too.

  4. I believe this set is from Crate and Barrel. It was a gift from a dear friend. We've had this set for ages.
