I don’t know if I can pinpoint an official summer flavor, but I definitely gravitate toward light and refreshing recipes. Fresh fruit makes an appearance, but can you really choose one fruit as the taste of summer? You gotta have them all! Today I have four tasty new summer recipes. These feature fresh herbs and fruit, and include a pasta salad, because summer meals call for pasta salad.

Watermelon Cucumber Salad

It doesn’t get more light and refreshing than this. Some juicy watermelon for sweetness, crisp and fresh cucumber, fresh herbs and a light dressing. All together you have a beautiful and tasty little side dish. As a bonus, I include tips for choosing a ripe watermelon at the store.
