Edible centerpiece for summer get togethers

Looking for a new idea for a fruit platter for those summer cook outs and family get togethers?

This is a very simple way to create a lovely fruit arrangement with just 2 fruit items,  cantaloupe and grapes. Of course you could add pineapple, strawberries, or berries of your choice.

To cut the canteloupe to create flower “petals”

• Cut the cantaloupe in half
• Clean out all the seeds
• Turn the cantaloupe face down and cut small slices
• Run the knife around the edge and carefully remove the rind. Voila! You have “petals”
• Arrange in a circular pattern on a nice plate
• Garnish with the grapes in the center

Easy, lovely, and a healthy addition to any cook out or holiday get together!
