Recipe type:
My former boss gave this to me. I have no idea where he got it and, I'll admit, I was a little skeptical at first. However, after trying it, I fell in love with it and now make it all the time!
Ingredients: 
1 part sweet onion, diced
2 parts sweet basil, but spicy globe basil works well also
3 parts watermelon, balled
Directions: 

Mix the watermelon and basil together in a large bowl and let sit, covered, overnight in the fridge.  The next day, add the onion and mix well. 
Serve chilled.  (The salad looks like Christmas colors when all mixed up)
