Watermelon Recipes

Last Updated June 24, 2019 By Alecia

You can’t have summer without watermelon, you just can’t! I buy at least one a week from June to September they don’t last long at all between my daughters and I.

I usually chop it up as soon as I get it home, toss the rinds to the chickens and we finish it up in a few days (or that day…). But occasionally I like to mix things up.

So I went on a mission to find some creative and interesting things to make with watermelon. I had a lot of fun looking up all these recipes and planning out which ones I’ll be making this summer.

If you’re looking for some recipes with a kick check out my list of Watermelon Cocktails over on Tipsy Chickens!
