Watermelon Feta Salad
This one is a refreshing interplay between sweet and salty that comes out wonderfully every time, although it doesn’t refrigerate that well, so make just enough for what you plan to consume immediately. Often, I’ll chop all of the ingredients at once and store them separately so I can whip up some of this at lunch.
To make this, you’ll need a watermelon, a block of feta cheese, some mint leaves, and red onions. This is an exercise in your knife work: cube the melon into about one-inch cubes, slice the red onion razor-thin, crumble the feta and rip the mint into little chunks.
Then place the watermelon in a bowl, add the rest of the ingredients to taste, and mix it around gently for a few seconds: you don’t want to bruise the watermelon.
That’s it: it takes about five minutes and is one of my favorite summer side dishes or lunches at home.
