Green Melon Salad

1. 1

   Arrange the greens on a platter.

2. 2

   Cut the ends off the melon and stand upright.

3. 3

   Trim away rind, in strips, from top to bottom as you rotate the melon.

4. 4

   Halve and seed the melon and slice it into 1-inch wedges, then cut into bite-size pieces and arrange them over the bed of spicy greens.

5. 5

   Sprinkle with mint and lime juice and season with lots of pepper, to taste.

6. 6

   Drizzle very lightly with a hint of honey or agave syrup and dress with a liberal drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.

7. 7

   If you would like to add speck or prosciutto, tear it into large pieces and pile it in the center of the salad in a casual mound.

8. 8

   Serve as a first or last course.
