Top with balsamic dressing to taste. How about a cool watermelon soup to take the edge of the summer heat? Many kids would turn up their noses at gazpacho, a tomato-based version of cold soup, but when you puree watermelon cubes with a little salt, pepper and coriander, then mix in a bit of Greek yogurt, you'll appeal to the picky fruit lovers in your family. Watermelon has lots of lycopene as well, and when you leave it out for a little while to reach room temperature, you can increase the level of lycopene by up to 40 percent! Try fruit as a side for some of your usual dishes, like pork. Fruit is a natural pair for this meat, whether it's grilled pineapple with ham, applesauce with pork chops or even grilled apricots for a change of pace. Enjoy the fruit summer has to offer by giving it to your family as a side dish for dinner.
