Sometimes the best recipes are the simple ones. This recipe is no exception. It gives you the sweetness you crave, along with the saltiness. Eating healthy no longer becomes a chore with ideas like this.
Because I wrote a blog post about Vitamin C and the fact that it turns fat into energy...yes, you read that right – I decided to get more of it in my life. One of the top sources of Vitamin C is cantaloupes, so naturally I remembered my favorite trick to turn a simple bowl of cantaloupe into tasting like dessert.
I did a little research on our friend the cantaloupe and here is what I found:
One medium-sized cantaloupe has over 300% of your daily Vitamin C
It also is loaded with Vitamin A, which helps you with your vision and skin.
One cup of cantaloupe has as much potassium as a banana.
Here’s how to pick out a ripe cantaloupe:
A ripe cantaloupe should feel heavy for its size and have a sweet smell. When you press your finger where the stem was, it should yield slightly.
Summer is when cantaloupe is at the peak of it’s flavor, so make sure you pick some up then.
Now after all this information, I’m sure you want to go straight to the Rock-Your-World Salted Caramel Cantaloupe recipe:
