agree  María José Iglesias: sí, pero siempre lo he utilizado sin el artículo indeterminado "un". En España se dice "Esto es pan comido" (muy fácil). Ser un melón, depende del contexto.

Explanation:
Hola Elena,

ser algo un pan comido = facilissimo, un gioco da ragazzi (de esta estoy segura). En cuanto a "ser alguien un melón" creo que podría referirse a una persona dulce, agradable.

Espero que te sirva. Suerte!
Marina

También (dependiendo del contexto) "ser un melón" puede ser tonto.
