#### Ingredients

*For the Fries:*
- 1 medium whole watermelon
- Chopped mint
- Lime zest (optional)

*For the Strawberry Dip:*
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-3 tablespoons honey

How to Cut Watermelon into Crinkle Fries

*Materials Needed:*
- 1 medium whole watermelon
- Crinkle cutter (or wavy knife)
- Cutting board
- Sharp chefโ€™s knife

*Preparing the Watermelon:*
1. Rinse the watermelon to remove any dirt.
2. Place the watermelon on a cutting board. Using a sharp chef's knife, slice the watermelon in half width-wise.
3. Place one of the halves cut side down on the cutting board. Slice it into 1/4 inch thick pieces, to make half-moon shapes.
4. Lay each half moon flat and slice off the rind to create rectangles.
5. Use a crinkle cutter or wavy knife to create crinkle fry-shaped sticks. If you don't have a crinkle cutter, you can cut them into regular fries. Keep slicing until all the watermelon halves are used up. Then chill them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

*Make the Strawberry Dip:*
1. In a blender or food processor, add the chilled Greek yogurt, strawberries, vanilla extract, and honey.
2. Blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of water and blend again until it reaches the desired consistency.

*Serving:*
1. Transfer the strawberry dip to a serving bowl.
2. Arrange the crinkle-cut watermelon fries on a serving platter.
3. Sprinkle chopped mint over the fries for a fresh, aromatic touch. Optionally, add a sprinkle of lime zest for an extra zesty flavor boost.
4. Your delicious watermelon fries are ready. Enjoy this refreshing and healthy treat as a snack or dessert with the strawberry dip on the side.

*Tips:*
- Watermelon stays fresh in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days.
- For extra sweetness, you can drizzle a bit more honey over the watermelon fries.
