Watermelon is a totally good-for-you food: The sweet, juicy pink melon is high in cancer-fighting lycopene and vitamins, but has zero fat or cholesterol.
This refreshing smoothie could earn a well-deserved place in your regular diet, it’s so luscious–and it’s good for you, too. Watermelon Mint Smoothie makes a great breakfast, or a super pick-me-up snack anytime. Get the easy recipe here:
INGREDIENTS
1 to 2 cups seedless watermelon chunks
1 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, or to taste
1 cup lemon yogurt
Dash cinnamon
1. Puree watermelon, honey, and mint in a blender or food processor quickly–do not over blend. Pulse in the yogurt and cinnamon just until smooth.
Serves 1 or 2.

I also love watermelon. It is also one of the most economical, if not the most, summer fruits.
i like it! thank you
Wow, I'd like to try it!
Sounds easy to make and good to take.
Thanks for the article. Sounds good.
Mmmmmm Yummy ty! :-)
I had some leftover watermelon, which wouldn't fit in the fridge with the fresh one, so I tried this. I bought the wrong yogurt, though. I got yogurt with honey. I just left out the honey in the recipe. I was not disappointed, however. It was really good.
We have tried and tasted it. Don´put too mich honey in and not too much mint, please.
