In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and 1/4 cup vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine the onion, lime juice, 1/3 cup vinegar and sugar and set aside for 2 hours. In a large bowl, combine the watercress, parsley and watermelon. Add just enough dressing to moisten the ingredients (there will be some dressing left over) and toss to coat. Place the salad on a large platter or individual serving plates. Drain the onion, place on top of the salad and serve.

A Message from our Provider:
“If thankfulness does not move us to serve God, then we do not truly understand who our God is and what He has done in our behalf. Without gratitude for Christ’s sacrificial love, our duty will become nothing more than drudgery and our God nothing more than a dissatisfied boss. #Bryan Chapell”
