This gorgeous “cake” is actually made from heart-healthy watermelon decorated with yogurt and berries. It's a refreshing, gluten-free twist on dessert that's perfect for Fourth of July festivities or a summer birthday.
Servings: 6-8
Ingredients
1 seedless watermelon
1 cup vanilla-flavored yogurt
1 cup sliced almonds
1 cup blueberries
1 cup sliced strawberries
Directions
1. Place watermelon on cutting board. Cut 3-5 inches off each end to create large center slice between 3-5 inches thick. Trim off outer rind.
2. Cut watermelon slice into 6-8 pie-shaped wedges. Blot edges with paper towels to absorb excess moisture.
3. Dip the back (curved) side of each slice in yogurt and then almonds, re-assembling pieces on serving platter as each piece is completed.
4. Frost top of reassembled watermelon with remaining yogurt and then decorate with berries. Serve cold.
