Melon Arugula Salad with Ham image

I love to think about all the healthy antioxidants in this melon salad that I serve to my summer dining guests. I like to save the melon rinds, cutting them into large wedges and using them as serving dishes. It makes a lovely presentation, and cleanup is a breeze! -Shawn Jackson, Fishers, Indiana

This salad was a delightful combination of flavors and textures. The sweetness of the melon, the peppery arugula, the salty ham, and the tangy dressing all came together perfectly. I would definitely make this salad again.
