Breakfast

 (Shrimp and watermelon salads..)

The refreshing taste of watermelon combined with shrimp, tomatoes, and bok choy, with a drizzle of lime juice, makes this the perfect summertime recipe to serve for lunch or a light dinner. To make it easier to eat, simply cube the watermelon and combine it with the other ingredients. Serve with a tall glass of iced tea or lemonade.
Ingredients
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 lb. peeled, divined medium shrimp
  • 2 tsp. snipped fresh thyme
  • 4 cups sliced bok choy or napa cabbage
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • 2 1-inch slices seedless watermelon, halved
  • Small limes, halved
  • Feta cheese (optional)
  • Fresh thyme sprigs

Directions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp; cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes, until shrimp are opaque. Transfer shrimp to bowl; stir in thyme. Add remaining olive oil, bok choy, and tomatoes to skillet; cook and stir 1 minute. Return shrimp to skillet; cook and stir 1 minute more. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Serve shrimp and vegetables with watermelon. Squeeze lime juice on salads; sprinkle feta and thyme sprigs. Serves 4.
