Style Food - Heart-warming watermelon

 "5-a-day". We've all heard it over and over, so 'fess up...how many of you actually dig into your fruits and veggies enough to comply with this ubiquitous rule?

You don't have to answer that :) If you're anything like yours truly, munching on fruits and veggies can be a bit of a bore and chore (sorry kind doctors and nutritionists).
Also a bit difficult getting the little ones to adopt the healthy ways when one struggles to personally submit...sigh...



Beautiful, no?

Anyway, here's an idea for you to make it more fun and worthwhile. Use a cookie cutter! Ground-breaking it may not be but it certainly worked for me :)

Several shape options are available, but I love LOVE and all things lovey so of course I went with heart shapes...

You can get a set of 6 from our local HOBBYCRAFT at Union Square for just £3.69 or get it from their online store here.




This is the HOBBYCRAFT cookie cutter I recommend



The desired perfect heart-shaped gap :)

The rest of the watermelon should not be wasted...the sacrilege! Please do peel and toss into your blender to get some watermelon juice, or even mix it up with other fruits to create la smoothie.
 
 
ENJOY! :)
