Instructions
- 1Preheat your grill to medium heat, which is about 175°C to about 205°C (175°C to 200°C).
- 2Cut the 4 cups of watermelon into about 2.5 cm cubes. Cut the about 225 g of dairy-free halloumi into about 2.5 cm cubes.
- 3Thread the watermelon cubes and the dairy-free halloumi cubes alternately onto skewers. You should have about 4-6 pieces of each per skewer.
- 4Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Brush the skewers evenly with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
