Joyanne McDaniel combined aromatic herbs from her garden with sweet melon in this simple and refreshing fruit salad. If you don't have access to fresh lemon verbena or another lemon-scented herb such as lemon thyme, fresh basil leaves will impart a different but equally complementary flavor to the salad.
How to Make It
Step 1
Peel and seed melon; cut into 1-inch chunks.
Step 2
In a bowl, mix lemon verbena, mint, vinegar, honey, orange extract, and salt. Add melon and mix to coat. Serve immediately or cover and chill up to 4 hours.
