Skewered Cantaloupe

" Don't turn your nose up at this dish. Melon grills beautifully, and the minty sauce takes it to the next level. For a great dessert, serve it with big scoops of vanilla ice cream. "

1 cantaloupe
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup chopped fresh mint leaves


Preheat grill for medium heat.

Thread the cantaloupe chunks onto 4 skewers. In a small saucepan, heat butter or margarine with honey until melted. Stir in mint. Brush cantaloupe with honey mixture.

Lightly oil grate. Place skewers on heated grill. Cook for 4 to 6 minutes, turning to cook all sides. Serve with remaining sauce on the side.
