Ingredients
  

4 cups watermelon, seedless, cubed

2 cups Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped

2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (optional, adjust for sweetness)

1 tablespoon lime juice

Pinch of salt

Extra mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: Start by cutting the watermelon into cubes. If using a whole watermelon, make sure to remove all seeds and rind.

    Create the Watermelon Puree: Blend the watermelon cubes in a blender or food processor until smooth. You can strain it through a fine mesh sieve if you prefer a smoother texture.

      Mix Yogurt and Mint: In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, finely chopped mint leaves, honey (if using), lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir well until everything is fully incorporated.

        Layer the Mixture: In a loaf pan or a flat baking dish, pour half of the watermelon puree to create the first layer. Spread it evenly across the bottom.

          Add Yogurt Layer: Gently spoon the yogurt mixture over the watermelon layer, spreading it evenly with a spatula to cover.

            Finish with Watermelon Puree: Top the yogurt layer with the remaining watermelon puree, spreading it out to form a final layer.

              Freeze: Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a lid and place it in the freezer for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.

                Slice and Serve: Once frozen, remove from the freezer and let sit for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Carefully cut into slices or squares as desired. Garnish with extra mint leaves if you’d like.

                  Enjoy: Serve immediately as a refreshing treat on a hot day or for a delightful snack!
