Melon with Raspberry Sauce (2 pts)




From Light & Tasty

Refreshing melon slices fanned out in a pretty pool of raspberry sauce create a light but elegant ending to any special-occasion meal.


INGREDIENTS



* 2-2/3 cups unsweetened raspberries
* 3 tablespoons honey
* 1 teaspoon lemon juice
* 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger or 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh gingerroot
* 1/2 large cantaloupe

CATEGORY Lower Fat
PREP 15 min.

DIRECTIONS




Set aside a few raspberries for garnish. Place the remaining berries in a blender or food processor; cover and process until pureed. Add the honey, lemon juice and ginger; cover and process. Strain and discard seeds; set sauce aside.
    Cut the cantaloupe and honeydew into three wedges; cut each wedge widthwise in half. Remove seeds and rind. With a knife, slice each piece of melon lengthwise toward narrow end without cutting completely to the end. Open into a fan shape.
    On each dessert plate, place 2 tablespoons of raspberry sauce and a cantaloupe fan and honeydew fan. Garnish with reserved raspberries. Yield: 6 servings.
