Watermelon Bites are fresh and delicious and are a wonderful way to take advantage of seasonal fruits and vegetables. Preparation is easy and the presentation is beautiful. Pair them with our Medjool Date Bites and enjoy them with cocktails. This recipe was inspired by one of our favorite chefs, Giada De Laurentiis. Mix yellow, orange or red cherry tomatoes for colorful variety!

Ingredients
- 1 small seedless watermelon, cut into 24 cubes

- Using a pic first push a tomato half cut side up, followed by a mint leaf and finally a watermelon cube.
