Watermelon & Tuna Ceviche

It’s September which means its officially the end of Summer….. boooooo! All the sad face emojis. I can’t let summer escape me with out making one last dish to celebrate the warmer seasons and that is my favourite new ceviche concoction, Watermelon & Tuna ceviche. All these flavours are fresh, work stupendously well together and fizz on the tastebuds. Super low cal, easy to make and looks incredibly gorgeous on a plate especially topped with edible flowers. The hardest bit is just not keeping it all to yourself.
