Quick and healthy watermelon salad

If you are a fan of sweet and salty then you have to make my quick and healthy watermelon salad. With avocado, spinach, spring onions, and cucumber, it's so refreshing and tastes like summer in every bite.

This is just perfect meal when it's too hot to cook. Few fresh ingredients with big flavours, so if you need a summer boost give this healthy watermelon salad a try. I love it just like that, but you could add squeeze of lemon, or my tahini dressing or peanut butter dressing.

It's so easy. All you have to do is great big ripe watermelon and chop it up. Add in spinach, avocado, cucumber, fresh mint leaves, spring onions and sesame seeds. That's it. As said above you can add dressing of your choice or squeeze some lemon and lime over. Give it a good mix and leave to stand for 15 minutes for all the flavours to mingle.
