Cantaloupe with Honey and Lime image

Not only is this one of the simplest desserts to prepare-it's also low in calories and virtually fat-free. Because it is so light and refreshing, it's a perfect ending to a heavy meal.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

Cantaloupe, peeled and seeded
1/4 cup honey
Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lime

Steps:

  • Using a sharp knife, slice the cantaloupe as thin as possible. Mound the slices on 4 serving plates, dividing evenly.
  • Drizzle the cantaloupe with the honey, and then sprinkle with lime zest and juice. Serve immediately.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice off the top and bottom of the melon so that it sits flat on a work surface.
  • Following the shape of the melon, slice off the peel in strips, from top to bottom.
  • Halve the peeled melon lengthwise, and scrape out the seeds with a spoon before slicing.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe cantaloupe: Look for melons that are firm, heavy for their size, and have a deep, orange-yellow color. Avoid melons that have bruises or soft spots.
  • Chill the cantaloupe before serving: This will make the melon even more refreshing and delicious.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Bottled lime juice can be bitter and harsh. Fresh lime juice will give your melon a bright, citrusy flavor.
  • Don't over-mix the melon: Gently toss the melon with the honey and lime juice until it is evenly coated. Over-mixing will bruise the melon and make it mushy.
  • Serve immediately: Cantaloupe with honey and lime is best served fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
