Just okay. The mint really makes the soup so don't leave it out.

I made this for my husband and me. I enjoyed it - and I made the sandwich vegetarian-friendly by replacing the prosciutto with tomatoes and adding pesto. You definitely have to like cantaloupe to enjoy the soup. I thought it was delicious; the husband... not so much.
