Watermelon season has arrived, everyone!

And as always, we turned to senior culinary producer and our very own watermelon *queen,* Jeanette Donnarumma, to teach us her ways.

RELATED: How to Turn a Watermelon Into a T-Rex Centerpiece

This year, she wanted to prove just how simple slicing a watermelon could actually be -- so you can save money on buying it pre-sliced (way pricier per pound).

So, go ahead and follow her 3 easy steps -- and watch her demonstrate her expertise in the video above!

1) Cut watermelon straight down the middle

2) Flip one half face down and slice into strips in one direction

3) Turn it and slice in the other direction

4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 on other half

And voila! You'll be left with what Jeanette refers to as snackable "watermelon fries."
