Description
A refreshing snack made with sweet watermelon, salty feta, and fresh mint, drizzled with a tangy balsamic glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups watermelon (cut into 24 1″ cubes)
- 4 oz. feta (cut into 24 cubes)
- 24 mint leaves
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 Tbsp. coconut sugar
- 24 toothpicks
Instructions
- Lay watermelon cubes out on a serving tray and top with feta squares.
- Fold and skewer a mint leaf with a toothpick, then poke the toothpick through the feta and watermelon. Repeat for remaining cubes.
- To make the balsamic glaze, heat vinegar and brown sugar over medium-high heat in a small saucepan until it simmers. Stir continuously while simmering for approximately 5 minutes until the sauce has reduced almost in half.
- Remove from heat and let sit for 1-2 minutes. Spoon a small amount of glaze over each prepared skewer and serve right away.
Notes
Use firm watermelon for best results; assemble skewers just before serving for freshness.
