Savory Mint Watermelon Salad

  A few weeks ago I went to a food blogger conference in Salt Lake City and of course at a food blogger conference, the main focus is the food. The catering at the conference was superb and one of the dishes that I was most excited to try was a watermelon salad. I’ll admit…
