Watermelon Wonders!

7/4/2013

July is now here and many Floridians are stocking up on watermelons for their 4th of July parties. If you are looking to do something more exciting than serving plain old watermelon slices, I am here to share some new ideas for this annual celebration.

Some fun facts and tips on watermelons:

High in bloat-reducing potassium
Low in calories – 1 cup is only 46 calories
Good source of lycopene – helps with heart health and cancer prevention
Fastest moving food – great for internal body cleansing

Z-Tip on eating watermelons:

Eat melons alone or leave them alone.

Watermelon Juice:

1 Watermelon
1 Honeydew
2 Cucumbers
1 Lime

Juice watermelon, honeydew and cucumbers through a juicer. Squeeze lime by hand. Serve on the rocks for a refreshing beverage.
