Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole Seedless watermelon
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Rainbow sprinkles
- 10 pieces Wooden popsicle sticks
Instructions
Slice the watermelon into 1-inch thick rounds, then cut each round into 2-inch wide wedges, similar to pizza slices.
Using a small knife, make a small slit into the rind of each watermelon wedge. Insert a wooden popsicle stick into the slit to create a watermelon 'popsicle'.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Transfer the yogurt dip to a small serving bowl and sprinkle the top with rainbow sprinkles for a fun touch.
Arrange the watermelon dippers on a platter around the yogurt dip and serve immediately.
Optional: Refrigerate the watermelon wedges for 10 minutes before serving for an extra-chilled treat.
