Hi,
This Tasty Tuesday, we’re keeping things crisp, cool and deeply refreshing with a dish that’s as hydrating as it is delicious, Watermelon Mint Salad.
Juicy watermelon meets fresh mint and a splash of citrus in this super simple salad that screams summer. It’s light, vibrant and made entirely from whole plant-based ingredients, perfect for sunny days, picnics or a mid-afternoon pick-me-up.
How to make it:
- Cube fresh, ripe watermelon into bite-sized pieces.
- Add a handful of finely chopped fresh mint leaves.
- Squeeze in some fresh lime or lemon juice.
- Toss gently and let it chill in the fridge for 10–15 minutes before serving.
- Optional add-ins: sliced cucumber, a few berries or a sprinkle of hemp seeds for texture and extra nourishment.
Why it’s a summer favorite:
- Super hydrating & naturally sweet
- Just a few fresh ingredients
- Quick to prep and easy to love
- 100% plant-based and refreshing every time
This salad proves that sometimes the simplest recipes are the most satisfying. Cool, clean and full of life, just like summer should be.

Stay cool and plant-powered.
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
