Watermelon Rind Stir-Fry Recipe

Recipe by: Gennette

"The rind of a watermelon contains a lot of nutrients that go to waste if you just throw it away after eating the inner part of the watermelon. Why not put it to some use? Cooked watermelon rind has a texture similar to zucchini, and it adds a mildly sweet taste to this stir-fry."
