Salad Ingredients
- 4 cups watermelon, cut into small cubes
- 2 cups sugar snap peas, thinly sliced on a sharp diagonal
- 1 cup shelled edamame
- ¼ small red onion, very thinly sliced, soaked for 10 minutes
- ⅓ cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
- ¼ cup toasted pine nuts
- flaky sea salt + extra lime wedges for serving
Balsamic Lime Dressing Ingredients
- 1 large lime, zested and juiced
- 1 tbsp white balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- pinch of flaky salt and black pepper
Method
- Start by chilling your watermelon and sugar snap peas beforehand if possible. This salad is at its absolute best when everything is super cold, crisp, and refreshing.
- In a large bowl, combine the watermelon, sugar snap peas, edamame, red onion, mint, and toasted pine nuts.
- Drizzle the dressing over the salad right before serving and toss gently so the watermelon stays intact. Let it sit for a minute or two so the watermelon juices mix with the dressing, creating the most insanely fresh, light, citrusy dressing.
- Finish with extra mint, flaky salt, black pepper, and another squeeze of lime if desired.
