Summer is the perfect time for lazing on the deck. And hanging out with friends.

And what says summer more than watermelon?

Besides being refreshing, watermelons are good for you. They’re a good source of Vitamins C and A, which you need for a healthy immune system.

And they contain antioxidants which lower inflammation. So, eat up that watermelon!

These watermelon skewers make it easy to do just that. The sweetness and freshness of the watermelon pair perfectly with the creaminess and saltiness of the feta cheese.

And the homemade mint pesto dressing is the icing on top of the cake, ahem, watermelon skewers.

Besides being tasty, these skewers are pretty elegant. So, they’re great for appetizers too.

Making them is pretty easy. Just cut your watermelon and feta cheese into cubes. Then place them on skewers.

To make the pesto dressing, all you need to do is place your ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.

Easy, peasy. That, my friend, is how I like to roll.
