Ingredients
- 2 cups cubed watermelon, seeds removed
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions
1. Prepare the Watermelon:
- Dice the watermelon into small cubes, ensuring that any seeds are removed. Place them in a microwave-safe dish, spreading them evenly.
