SAVORY WATERMELON AND PINEAPPLE SALAD"The interplay of watermelon with the firmer-textured pineapple creates a light and savory complement to any meal. Its refreshing flavor is a great counterpoint to a spicy dish. Not an oregano fan? Substitute Italian parsley or mint."
1 1/2 cups large watermelon chunks, seeded
1 1/2 cups large pineapple chunks
3 tablespoons red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
3 tablespoons lime juice or to taste
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
In bowl, gently combine watermelon, pineapple, red onion, oregano, lime juice and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Add more lime juice and vinegar, if desired.
