Grilled Watermelon Salad Recipe

 

AN ELEGANT ENTREE MAKES ANY SUMMER COOK OUT COOL

 


Summer hot cooking tips feature outdoor BBQ for your desserts using watermelon.
Honey grilled watermelon salad is sweet and simple at the summer’s peak.
How to pick a good watermelon?
Visiting your local Farmers Market is the best choice, but a local supermarket is another alternative.

2 large slices of the watermelon must be cut into four triangles.
2 table spoons of olive oil
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons of honey
1 pint of grape tomatoes, quartered
4 ounces of fresh mozzarella, cut in half or sliced
fresh basil leaves and balsamic glaze for drizzling


Directions
Preheat your grill to medium heat. Drizzle watermelon with olive oil and season all sides with salt and pepper. Add splash of honey over each watermelon and place them on the grill, grilling each side for about 2 minutes. Remove and add a little more honey if desired.
Assemble salads by placing two watermelon triangles on each plate, then cover with a few grape tomatoes, thin slices of mozzarella and basil leaves. Add some salt and pepper on top, then drizzle with balsamic glaze (can be purchased at your local grocery store or made at home! 
SERVE AND ENJOY

Jason and Sharon's Organic and Wine Wedding

 We had the pleasure to cater a wedding using local organic ingredients this past weekend! We meet so many wonderful people at the bride and grooms wedding. Thank you to everyone who raved about the food a presentation at the private winery estate in Temecula Ca. Everyone was dressed to the nines, so obviously the food had to match. Which you can see below Russian Doll Bakery and Catering did an amazing job.

All the close family and friends came to share this special time in their lives to celebrate life into this world. This was a time where people bonded together and rejoiced in the story of the couples challenges of having a baby. We will celebrate with them when he comes!

WE TIED THE KNOT


This bride and groom just tied the knot with the most astonishing themed wedding. I believe it’s true that their love truly is unbreakable. The details, the surprise reveals and the obvious love between them brought us so much joy and we were actually sad when it was over. Felisa & Greg were amazing, fun loving and just felt good to be around them. We love creating relationships like these with our Brides & Grooms. 
The wedding took place at La Canada Thursday Club which was the perfect venue if your looking for a Spanish theme with outside and inside area. The ceremony was heartfelt with their closest friends and family with tears and laughter which kept things stirring. The afternoon was filled with passed appetizers with an open drink stand with professional dressed servers and lots of laughs. An amazing Gluten Free and Vegetarian Buffet was a great way to serve all the guests with special diets and prepared by yours truly.

We also made the Wedding Cake and Cupcakes - all gluten free!


Check out what we served…

Passed Appetizers of Gluten Free Fresh Fruit Bruschetta & Organic Vegetable Shot Glasses with Homemade Ranch Dressing

Gluten Free and Vegetarian Buffet:

Domestic and European Cheese and Fruit Display with olives, artichokes, kosher pickles, grapes, fresh fruits, chocolates, dried fruits, nuts, crackers both kosher and gluten free
