The 4th of July is tomorrow and I am ready to party! Katy Perry’s “Baby You’re a Firework” has been in my head all week! Let’s get these fireworks started already:)

What are your holiday plans? We are having friends over for a BBQ! Everyone is bringing a dish to share, so we don’t have to make the entire spread. I appreciate the help and can’t wait to taste everyone’s dishes, but now I have to carefully decide what to make. It’s so hard to narrow it down to just a few recipes. We are for sure making Roasted Corn & Red Pepper Guacamole and this Cucumber Honeydew Salad with Feta.

  1. Happy 4th of July! I’m judging an annual pie contest for my old neighborhood association. It’s one of the oldest associations in the city and this will be my 2nd time judging. I promised to take a side dish. This salad just may fit the bill!

  2. My mom used to make this cucumber and raw onion salad. It was a bit much. Too much bite and not enough sweet. The sound of cucumbers and honeydew just fit. Happy BBQ!

  3. I love light salads like this! This looks so refreshing and delicious!! I think today is a salad kind of day!

  4. I faithfully read your blog, but am NOT interested in signing up for BGH stuff, anyway to get this recipe from you?

  6. This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! That green color is perfect ๐Ÿ™‚ WE are having some family over to grill and swim, then headed downtown to watch the fireworks. It’ll be Lucy’s first…hope she likes them!!

  7. We’re doing a similar potluck. I can’t wait! I’m making black bean burgers, cookies & salad. This looks so delicious. Nothing like a good honeydew

  8. I adore this salad! It’s so perfect for a hot cookout day like tomorrow ๐Ÿ™‚

    2. Update-we talked with BHG, they let us post the recipe. Again, so sorry about that!

  10. I am not a big fan of cucumber. Maybe I need to eat some organic, full-flavored ones. Even though, this recipe looks so refreshing! Perfect for summertime. I may need to give cucumbers a second chance ๐Ÿ˜‰

  11. I see pics of your beautiful recipes in my inbox, but, it’s really hit and miss to find the actual recipe. I click on all the hotlinks, and if I find the right one that leads to the recipe, it’s quite by accident. lol I even type in the name of the recipe in the search box. So, how exactly to I find your yummy recipes? Help–I must be dense! ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. If you get our emails, click on read the rest of…whatever the recipe post title is and it will take you to the full post and recipe. I hope that helps!

  12. Such a fantastic idea for a light, salty and sweet summer salad! I love it!

  13. As I read the recipe title I was nodding thinking to myself.. yup all these flavors would taste great together.

  14. My mother in law made this salad a couple months ago and it was DELISH!!! I think it would also be good mixed with some baby arugula to stretch it out and compliment the sweet melon. So good!!!

  15. Wow, this looks delicious! I love the addition of the red onion to add a little kick to all that coolness.

  16. Jason and I don’t have any specific plans but we will definitely be stuffing our face in this salad while sitting on the couch with the AC on in this LA heat!

  17. This salad looks lovely! Watermelon has been getting all of the attention recently. Glad to see honeydew in the spotlight ๐Ÿ™‚

  18. I’m starting to think that cucumber is the magical ingredient to bridge fruits and veggies in a salad. Last summer I made Alanna’s sweet corn, blueberry, and cucumber salad. Twas delicious.
    Now I know what to do when I get a honeydew in the CSA farm share–because this salad looks very good to me.
    Thanks!

  19. What an awesome salad! So fresh and perfect for picnics! Happy 4th ๐Ÿ™‚ xo

  20. You’re not the only one with “Firework” stuck in your head! ๐Ÿ˜‰
    The salad looks divine.

  21. This salad looks delicious! Except for one thing…onion! I really really don’t like onions. Can you suggest a replacement that might give a similar flavor profile? Thanks!

  22. I am bringing the salad to a friend’s house. Can I mix the salad with the dressing before hand or is it better to mix it fresh? Thanks.

  23. 5 stars
    I made this to take to a dinner party BarBQ , ย 8 couples. ย Everyone tried it even though some did not care for all ingredients. ย I was a hit! ย  I will be adding this to my summer recipe box.

  24. do you need to serve right away or can you dress it and serve it hours later? will it keep for leftovers?

    1. You can make in advance and store leftovers, but making the day of is best.
