Serpent melon recipes?

My mom got some serpent melon seeds from a mail order catalog not expecting them to actually grow, but thinking it would be a fun experience. Now we have 4,1 foot long melons. I've also heard they're supposed to taste like cucumbers, but I'm not sure.

It sounds really interesting. =)

Not having tasted one, I don't know if cucumbers recipes would actually taste great with your Serpent melon. Maybe you can slice open one and taste it.

You might just want to eat some with a dip. Brown sugar mixed with sour cream or yogurt like this one: http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Yogurt-Fruit-Dip

If it has more of a light melon taste, you might pair it up with more flavorful fruit for a fruit salad. You can drizzle concentrated orange juice mixed with yogurt or sour cream over it.

If it truly tastes like a cucumber, you might want to make a Greek Orzo salad http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Greek-Orzo-Salad/Detail.aspx.
