When I head to the farmers market each week I grab a watermelon when they’re in season. It seems a shame not to enjoy them while we can!

After a few weeks it gets boring just eating plain old watermelon so of course I had to find a way to spice things up a little bit.

Kitchen essentials for making fun summer recipes:

It’s never a bad idea to have some of these kitchen essentials on hand. They’ll come in handy for making more than just this tasty recipe, I promise!

I like half sheet baking pans that are quality (hello no noisy pops or sloshed cookie dough from twisting), I line my cookie sheets with silicone baking mats. These are a must when doing cookie recipes which can stick to cookie sheets and make a general mess! 

Of course mixing bowls, a mixerspatula, and some whisks should be on your list if you don’t have ones that you love. I also like to have a set of cooling racks so that my recipes can properly cool before they’re scarfed down by my family!

For this particular recipe you’ll need a melon baller and a nice big serving bowl!
