Thai Melon Salad image

Great for summer picnics. For easy shopping, I've generally found that 1 cantaloupe and 1 honeydew provide six cups. I usually peel the cucumbers, or if I leave them out because Cathy doesn't like them, sometimes I add apples instead. If it's hard to find a thai chile, at least try to find a red one for visual appeal, but the chiles are pretty switchable.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more herbs and spices to the dressing.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the dressing.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, so I omitted the chili peppers. The salad was still delicious.
