To cut the watermelon, please make sure an adult is present. Watermelons can be difficult to cut because they are large and round, so they roll. It is important to first wash the outside of the watermelon. Start by cutting it in half, then place the flat cut side down. Continue to cut in half, then in half, again, until you have a small enough piece to work with. You will then cut it from the rind, then cut into small squares (cubes).

Onion gets peeled and then sliced thin.

Gently slice/chop your fresh mint.

Add your watermelon, onions, mint and arugula to a large bowl. Toss in sliced almonds and chicken (optional).

Make the dressing by combining the oil, lemon juice, lemon rind, salt and pepper. Add your dressing to your watermelon salad and toss to coat.
