Watermelon, basil and tomato salad

Watermelon, Basil and Tomato Salad.

1 watermelon. Preferably seedless. Cubed.
1 small crate of cherry tomatoes or about 5 large tomatoes, red, yellow or orange.
A large bunch of Basil
1 C White Balsamic Vinegar, or Dark balsamic Vinegar
1/4 C Sugar. This will make a reduction.

Simmer vinegar and sugar for about 7-10 minutes until a bit reduced and thickened. 

Toss watermelon, tomatoes and basil together. Serve with
The vinegarette reduction.
 You can also skewer this salad, alternating watermelon, basil and tomatoes. Makes a beautiful presentation.

Great for a late summer salad as watermelon and tomatoes are in abundance at this time! Enjoy!
