I made this a while back it was good you will have to try it.
Ingredients:
1 medium-size watermelon, 1 cantaloupe, 1 honeydew melon, 2lbs.seedless green or red grapes.
To make the watermelon basket, first wash the outer rind with cool water. Then, use a sharp knife to slice off one end of the melon, removing about a quarter of it. With a large serving spoon, scoop out the flesh and reserve for later. Decorate the rind bowl by using the tip of a vegetable peeler or lemon zester to inscribe a star pattern on its outer surface.
2. Next, cut the cantaloupe in halves and spoon the seeds from the center of each. Use a melon baller to remove the cantaloupe flesh from one of the halves. Use the second half to make melon stars. Set this half on its side and cut it into 1-inch slices. Lay the slices on a cutting board and use a star-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the melon. Repeat the entire process with the honeydew melon.
3. Remove the seeds from the scooped out watermelon and cut additional stars out of it. Wash the grapes and remove them from their stems.
4. Fill the watermelon basket with the melon balls, stars and grapes. Use any leftover melon and grapes and bamboo skewers to create festive fruit kabobs. Serves 10 to 12.
