Summer's brightest: Melons! Woolworths chopping board chit chat

I was lucky to have another chopping board chit chat with Woolies. It was right on the back of COP 17 and in line with my philosophy of eating seasonal and local as far as possible, except for the Lindt chocolate of course.


 I have used melons and made basil, feta, watermelon salad these past two weekends and stumbled across a wonderful dressing.
White balsamic and pomegranate dressing:
3 parts olive oil
1 part white balsamic vinegar
2 parts pomegranate juice (fresh from the pomegranate, give it a squeeze)
salt and pepper to season

It's plain simple and really enhances the flavours in the watermelon salad.

Happy seasonal eating!
