Cantaloupe Fruit Bowl

 

Welcome to "Simply Delicious" at The Slow Roasted Italian.  Every Tuesday we will be sharing simple recipes that are absolutely amazing.

This week I bring you a simple Cantaloupe Fruit Bowl.  I saw this fantastic idea posted on Barefeet in the Kitchen and knew I had to make this.  Something like this is great for a party or just for lunch.  When I brought this to the table Em's eyes lit up like a kid on Christmas morning.  She and I had so much fun with this.  It was a joy to watch her try each fruit.  Next time I make it I will add more fruit that she is not as familiar with to make it even more exciting.

Make sure you check back next Tuesday for more fantastic dishes that are Simply Delicious!

1 cantaloupe cut in half and fruit removed with melon baller

1 cup grapes (I used green, red and black)

1 medium banana

½ lemon

In a medium bowl combine fruit and squeeze lemon on top, the lemon will add another dimension and keep the fruit from browning.  Toss gently to mix.  Place fruit mixture back into hollowed out cantaloupe halves.  Serve at room temperature or chilled.
