Red and Yellow Watermelon Salad created by BecR2400

Easy to make; sweet and refreshing! I used two varieties of watermelon-seedless red and seedless yellow! Fresh mint from the garden, too! For the fruit-flavored vinegar, raspberry flavor was used. From Quick and Simple magazine with a few minor changes.

Five stars! This salad is so delicious and refreshing--perfect on a hot summer's day!! I used white wine vinegar as that is what I had on hand, and fresh herbs from my very own garden. All of the flavors complimented each other beautifully! Made for 5 A Day in the photos forum. Thank you, Cookgirl, for a wonderful recipe!

Absolutely loved this salad. We'll be having this one often this summer. I tried the white balsamic version.
