    Watermelon Wedges with Vegan Balsamic Glaze

    Aug 3, 2014 ·

    I've been so loving watermelon lately!

     I wanted more than just plain sliced melon, and I've had this recipe in my head for a few weeks, so I finally put it on a plate.

    Quick and simple, take plain sliced watermelon slices,

    Plain-Watermelon

    Toasted coconut chips, I took mine off before every chip was brown, I didn't want it to burn.

    Toasted-Coconut

    Sweet balsamic glaze,

    Sweet-Balsamic-Glaze

    and end up with this beautiful, delicious dish.

    GlazedWatermelon

    The sweetness of the watermelon, mixed with the tart flavor of the glaze, satisfies that salty-sweet craving I get sometimes. I normally use purchased glaze, but this time I made my own. Most glaze recipes use brown or white sugar, but I used maple syrup to keep it vegan.

    Add these watermelon wedges on top of a bed of greens and it makes a nice salad, serve after dinner for a healthy dessert or eat anytime you need a tasty snack.
