Melon Salad With Yogurt Sauce and Lime

1 muskmelon, cantaloupe or another orange-fleshed
melon, washed
1/2 of a honeydew melon, washed before cutting
1/2 of a small watermelon, washed before cutting 1/2
Cup milk
1 cup yogurt, preferably whole milk or low-fat (not
fat-free)
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 or 2 limes, cut into wedges

In a bowl, whisk together the milk, yogurt and honey.
Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Just before serving, peel and seed the melons and cut
into 1-inch cubes. Combine them in a bowl, toss
lightly, and divide the mixture into chilled dessert
bowls. Drizzle the yogurt sauce on top of the fruit.

Sprinkle each serving with brown sugar and serve with
lime wedges that can be squeezed over the fruit at the
table.
