Talk about a quick and uncomplicated dinner…! Alas, I’m munching it for lunch, as is my son, and my mother… so, there’s nothing left of it for dinner!

This is a dish to eat with a fork, at room temperature. Don’t chill it. Let the air, even the sun, warm it a bit, and enjoy it as the main feature of your meal.

If you’re a lover of savory things with watermelon — goat cheese, kalamata olives, red onions, olive oil — you’ll “get” this dish. With a small amount of a creamy-ish dressing made from avocado, garlic, olive oil, and salt, it distributes just enough across the surface of the little watermelon chunks to give a simple savory hit to the taste buds.

And the sauce it makes in the bowl as it mixes with the water from the watermelon is lovely, unctuous. To this Greek, it’s something I’d love to sop up with a bit of fresh crusty bread! Alas… not on today’s menu.

:D

Oh, I’m so glad! Isn’t watermelon just awesome with savory stuff? Whatta gift that fruit is.

Also, come to think of it, *both* watermelon and garlic have a reputation for being aphrodisiacs! Where’s that link I wrote up…http://www.live-green-smoothie-diet.com/2009/09/watermelon-smoothie-a-whole-food-juice-that-may-act-like-viagra/

Imagine a watermelon-garlic smoothie… could work!
