Watermelon Salad with Feta and Mint
This is one of my favorite salads! This cooling combination of watermelon, fresh herbs, and crumbled cheese is sure to pleasantly surprise summertime guests. Serve immediately after preparing to prevent the cheese from getting soggy. I have used regular yellow onions instead of green onions and I use feta cheese everytime!
Ingredient List
Serves 4
2 cups diced watermelon (1-inch dice)
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, queso blanco, or ricotta salata (11/2 oz.)
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup mint leaves, chiffonade
1 Tbs. lime juice
1 Tbs. olive oil
Directions
Gently toss together all ingredients in large bowl, using hands to keep from crushing watermelon and cheese. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.
