REDNECK WATERMELON SUMMER SALAD
If you need a new summertime salad, you need to add this no-bake watermelon one to your menu. It's cool, creamy and refreshing with chunks of watermelon and pineapple in every bite. Just fantastic! We loved the crunchy texture that the pecans add to the salad. This will be a big hit at summer cookouts or potlucks.

WATERMELON SUMMER SALAD
We loved the refreshing taste of this summer salad. We're not going to lie. At first, the combination of ingredients had us intrigued, but they all work together. It's surprisingly fresh and delicious. Soaking cucumbers in the vinegar mixture is strong. But once they are mixed with the sweet watermelon and tomatoes it balances...
