6. Balsamic Glaze Finish: Finish by drizzling balsamic glaze over the top for a sweet and tangy touch that complements the watermelon beautifully.
7. Serve and Enjoy: Slice the watermelon “pizzas” into wedges and serve immediately. Enjoy this delightful and refreshing dish at your next gathering!

Tips

• For added texture, consider adding other toppings like sliced almonds, walnuts, or even a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.
• If you’re preparing in advance, keep the watermelon slices and toppings separate until just before serving to maintain freshness.
