Watermelon Recipe Round-Up
If you didn’t know, July is National Watermelon Month, and August 3rd is National Watermelon Day. You might also not know that we LOVE watermelon…like, a lot.
Watermelon and summer go together like tea & honey or peanut butter & honey or….well, you get the idea. It is also a super healthy treat that helps you beat the heat. In fact, watermelons are, on average, 92% water! It is also a great source of vitamins A & C and Lycopene.
Fun fact: watermelons are classified as both a fruit AND a vegetable!
What do you think? Should watermelon be the official fruit of summer? No matter if you are already on team watermelon or still thinking it over, we think you’ll love our watermelon recipes!
