This dish beautifully combines juicy watermelon with the tangy creaminess of feta cheese, creating a symphony of sweet and savory flavors that is perfect for hot days.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 cups watermelon, cubed (about 1 small watermelon)
1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup cucumber, diced
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Start by preparing the watermelon. Cut it in half, remove the seeds if necessary, and slice it into cubes.
In a large bowl, combine the cubed watermelon, diced cucumber, chopped red onion, and fresh mint leaves. Gently toss them together to mix the flavors.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently until everything is well-coated.
Finally, sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top. Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes to meld the flavors.
