This is a non-fat recipe with no added sugar, and a non-savory (no onions, no garlic, no olive oil) way to enjoy the health benefit of your jucy summer tomato harvest!

If you’re trying to lose weight, if you’re watching your sugar, if you follow a Weight Watchers program, or looking  to increase your tomato consumption to strengthen your heart-health, this is a unique dish you might want to check out.

Thinly sliced watermelon layered with thinly sliced juicy tomato wedges, “frosted” with an aromatic Strawberry-Rose glaze sweetened only with a few red grapes! Add a bit of quality salt to bring out the sweetness and you’ve got a great side dish for the summer table… or a juicy feast for one!

We tend to think of tomato as a veggie, but in fact it’s a fruit… and it behaves nicely as one when paired with many fruits.

(By the way, I ate this whole thing — eventually — for dinner. Seriously filled me up. Drank whatever berry glaze was left. *slurp* Good stuff!)
