melon and snow pea salad

 

I was inspired by a recipe found on Epicurious, but adapted it drastically to the items found in my own pantry. Cantaloupe was replaced with cantaloupe and honeydew. Sugar snap peas were replaced with snow peas. Ricotta salata was replaced with feta, and I skipped the aleppo pepper. So, just a few changes.

We loved this recipe and found it refreshing.
