If not, you definitely should. Just a thin slice \u2013 maybe a quarter of an inch thick \u2013 right there on top. It pretty much takes the place of the tomato, but with a little extra sweetness.<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s recipe does exactly that, but the watermelon slice is dusted with chili powder. Combine that with the honey mustard, and it takes the sweet watermelon in a whole new and exciting direction. By the way, you can do the chili powder-dusted watermelon slice trick with just about any sandwich. Except maybe peanut butter and jelly. Actually, a PB&amp;J with a slice of chili watermelon might not be half bad!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>ROASTED PORK LOIN AND WATERMELON SANDWICH<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>INGREDIENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1 poppy seed or Kaiser roll, split<br \/>\nDash of honey mustard (to taste)<br \/>\n6 ounces thinly sliced roasted pork loin<br \/>\n1 3\/4 inch thick slice of watermelon, about the size of the roll<br \/>\n1\/2 teaspoon mild chili powder<br \/>\n2 ounces fresh baby greens<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>INSTRUCTIONS<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Spread honey mustard liberally over the inside of the roll and layer the pork over the bottom piece.
