Watermelon Pizza is another super simple way to change up your normal watermelon snacking. I like this banana and peanut butter combo on this pizza. You can also spread yogurt as your “sauce” then top with fruit, and it’s pretty delicious.

Honey Lime Watermelon Granita

A granita is kind of like a slushies’ older yet more sophisticated Italian cousin. Make this super easy watermelon granita for a great sweet summer treat.

Watermelon Cake

This is another fun party trick, make a watermelon into a cake! Decorate your cake with fruit, or you can even “frost” it with yogurt or whipped cream. Yum!
