Cantaloupe & Strawberries

Not sure if this is a salad or appetizer or what. But this is really good for a snack or a party or just for desert.

First I take a melon, Honeydew can be used in addition to or as a replacement to the Cantaloupe melon. I prefer the Cantaloupe melon. I cut the melon in half and then each half into four pieces. I only use one half of the melon at a time, but if you did the whole melon you would have eight pieces. Then carefully cut the melon off the rind and then into small bite size pieces.

Next I cut strawberries lengthwise into 4 pieces for each strawberry. When you have a good amount cut up, I lightly toss the ingredients with some sugar. The sugar helps to draw out the juices and will sweeten any sour pieces. You are the judge on how much sugar to use. I do not recommend using artificial sugars here. Artificial sugar should only be used by those who must restrict there intake of sugar per appropriate medical instructions.

I would let the melon and strawberries rest for an hour or so, so that the flavors can mingle and your dish is ready to eat.
