Grilled watermelon...not you’re usual! Watermelons are mostly water — about 92 percent — but this refreshing fruit is soaked with nutrients.

 Each juicy bite has significant levels of vitamins A, B6 and C, lots of lycopene, antioxidants and amino acids. There’s even a modest amount of potassium.

This recipe is awesome all the way and super healthy too. With a combination of watermelon, brown rice and radishes what better way to eat healthy

Serves: 6-8

Prep Times: 30 mins

Grill Time: 4 mins

Ready In: 34 mins

Ingredients:

? 2pcs 1-inch water melon slices

? 2 packets romaine lettuce, chopped

? 3cups quinoa or brown rice, cooked

?1 cup pickled radish

?1 cup honey-lime vinaigrette

?2 avocados, seeded, peeled and sliced or chopped

? ¼ teaspoon chili powder

? ½ cup feta cheese

? ½ cup dhania, snipped

Directions:

For a charcoal or gas grill, place watermelon on the rack of a covered grill directly over medium-high heat. Grill about 4 minutes or until watermelon is lightly charred, turning once halfway through grilling.

Spread lettuce on a large serving platter.

In a large bowl combine quinoa/brown rice and the pickled radishes. Add 2/3 cup of the honey-lime vinaigrette then toss to coat.

Cut each watermelon slice into four wedges. Arrange watermelon wedges and avocados on salad; sprinkle with chili powder. Top with the feta cheese and dhania.

Serve salad with the remaining vinaigrette on the side.
