One cup of cantaloupe contains about 50 calories. One wedge of cantaloupe that is 1/8th or a medium sized melon contains 23 calories. One wedge from a smaller mellow that is just over 4" in diameter contains just a bit less caloric content at 19 calories per serving size.
One cantaloupe that is about 5" in diameter contains 188 calories. One small cantaloupe that is about 4¼ in diameter contains 150 calories.
For a beautiful low calorie diet dessert arrange ten cantaloupe balls in a pretty glass serving dish and spray with 1 serving of low fat whipped cream (14 calories per serving). Dust with ground cinnamon; finish with a light dusting of powdered sugar. The melon contains less that 50 calories, the whipped cream only 15 per serving and the powdered sugar about 15 calories for a light dusting. The ground cinnamon is zero calories.
Like other melons, you get a lot of food for your Diet Buck.
Cantaloupe may also be enjoyed frozen or whipped into a cool cantaloupe soup that very tasty in the summer time. Add a dash of cinnamon and ground cloves.
