3cupsmeloncubed - watermelon, honeydew or cantaloupe
2tablespoonsfresh lime or lemon juice
1/3cupsugaror less to taste
pinchof salt
Instructions
Place the cubed melon into a blender. Add the juice, sugar and salt.
Pulse up the melon until you have a thick pulp. Do not puree. Some small chunks are just fine.
Pour the mixture into metal freezer trays. Freeze for one hour.
At one hour, take a fork and break up the frozen chunks. Take care to scrape the edges.
Every half hour afterwards repeat by breaking up the chunks with a fork. This will keep the mixture from freezing solid. After all the liquid has frozen you can go through again with a fork to break up any large chunks right before serving.
Notes
I like the combination of honeydew and lime juice, watermelon or cantaloupe with lemon juice. Experiment to find your family's favorites. Also note that depending on the ripeness of your melon you may need much less sugar. Start with a tablespoon or two and work your way up or substitute your favorite sweetener.
