The name sounds curious. The ingredients seems like they go together. I think I will tey it. I do not care for mint, but on this case I think a little will be good. Thanks

I think onions and cantaloupe sound a bit strange mixed together.

@DiAnneIs this best if it marinates for an hour or two in the refrigerator? If sounds delish!

It does not need to marinate. I just serve it right away. Hope you like it.

You can always leave the onions out. Fresh lime juice just squeezed over any melon is delicious.

Thanks @DiAnne for always sharing your recipes!

I make this exact salad with watermellon. Never thought to try it with cantaloupe! Great idea!

The onions are surprisingly delicious in this and I am not a big raw onion eater. I use red (purple) and just slice them very thin and don't use too much.

Feta, mint and fruit is one of my favs!
