watermelon smoothie

 

Although the dog days of summer have not arrived yet, my local grocery store had a sale on cut watermelon today. My mom and I quickly scooped some up with the hope that it would be juicy and sweet. We were NOT disappointed. She and my son had some for dessert and I decided to blend mine into a refreshing smoothie! I have to tell you that this is one of the best smoothies I’ve made yet. I know, I know, I always say this but this combination of lime and watermelon is truly delectable! And rather than keep you waiting here is the recipe for this sweet treat!

Watermelon Smoothie

1 1/2 cups of cut  cold seedless watermelon
