Watermelon Watermelon

This is another rave about Clean Eating magazine.  I love their two week plans because if something is involved in a recipe {like watermelon} it will show up in the meal plan many other times in many different ways so that you can be sure to use that melon until it's gone!  I love watermelon so much, but in the old days I wouldn't have been able to deal with a huge watermelon. It would stress me out that there is SO MUCH OF IT!  I am also ashamed to say that we would probably have let a portion of it go to waste either because it would go bad or we would get tired of eating it plain over and over.

Here are some recipes that have involve watermelon.  Sources: Clean Eating magazine July/Aug 2013 & July/Aug 2010.
