Watermelon topped with yogurt and colorful fruit—ideal for a refreshing snack or light treat.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Base

01 - 1 large round seedless watermelon (approximately 2.5 kg)

→ Topping

02 - 240 g plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
03 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, to sweeten yogurt)

# How to Make It:

02 - Place the watermelon round evenly on a large cutting board or serving platter.
03 - In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt with honey or maple syrup if desired, stirring until smooth.
04 - Evenly spread the sweetened yogurt over the top of the watermelon, leaving a narrow border around the edge.
05 - Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, and raspberries attractively over the yogurt layer.
06 - Sprinkle with shredded coconut and chopped fresh mint, if using.
07 - With a large sharp knife, cut the topped watermelon round into 8 wedges, as you would slice a pizza.
