Ripe, aromatic cantaloupe and heirloom cherry tomatoes are a perfect combination for this fresh, juicy and healthy salad, and it’s quick to put together too. Balling the cantaloup creates a more fun dish, but cutting them into bite-size chunks tastes just as delicious. Totally your choice. You could add more punch to this simple salad by adding some homemade croutons or feta or serve it with your favourite protein for a complete meal.

- 1 Cantaloupe, balled
- 300 g Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 tbsp Dill, chopped (or mint, parsley and basil)
- 2 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- Sea salt and freshly milled black pepper
- Pink peppercorns
|
- Cut the cantaloupe in half and scoop out the seeds. Using a melon baller, press against the melon and scoop out the balls. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
- Place cantaloupe balls and tomoato halves in a large bowl. Add in chopped dill, olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Gently mix them together. Garnish with pink peppercorns and enjoy!

Such gorgeous lil tomatoes!
...a sweet summer treat!
Looks so pretty. I'm just not sure it's for me. I ate too many cantaloupe when I was little and got sick and have never been able to eat it again.
Beautiful summer salad🥰
Not a combination I would ever have thought of, but it looks terrific.
Interesting combo -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
That looks really tasty :-D
Such a pretty salad! Looks super refreshing for a hot day!
Nice summer salad.
Looks refreshing and delicious. Thanks for sharing Angie.
Take care, have a great day. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Beautiful colours and presentations, Angie!
I love how fresh and vibrant this salad looks. The combination of cantaloupe and cherry tomatoes is simple but really appealing, and the herbs and pink peppercorns make it feel special.
I never would have thought to mix tomatoes with cantaloupe but I bet it is delicious. Karen (Back Road Journal)
Cantaloupe and tomatoes? What an intriguing combination, and the salad looks terrific!
Bet that is good, it sure is festive looking too!
Yet again, a unique combination I would never have considered! Very cool. David (C&L)

Both fruits do like very good, Angie.
I bet this is good. I've never thought of putting cantelope with tomatoes, but why not? Happy new week Angie.
I've had watermelon/tomato salad (kind of common here) but never cantaloupe. It is prettier and I imaging would be just as delicious.
I like the presentation of your fruit salad!
What a beautiful summer salad, a new combination that not only looks wonderful but I imagine, tastes wonderful too.
A delicious, nutritious and refreshing salad. Thank you Angie!
ANGIE; me encanta la combinación de ensaladas de fruta con otros ingredientes; en este caso el tomate cherry y eneldo. Sabroso y fresco. Acostumbro acompañar el melón, además de sólo, con fetas de jamón. Vuestra propuesta se ajusta perfectamente.
Siempre gracias!
Muy buena semana; un gran abrazo:
Grace.
such an interesting salad Angie. I had to get used to calling cantaloupe 'rockmelon' when i first moved here to Queensland!
This salad is singing my song - I think I'm in love with it!
Love how you shaped the cantaloupe like the cherry tomatoes :)
