  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Salad Ingredients

  • 6 cups cubed watermelon
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese
  • 1/3 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped

Optional Dressing

  • Balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze, to taste

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, add the cubed watermelon, chopped red onion, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped fresh mint leaves.
  2. Mix Gently: Stir the ingredients gently until they are evenly combined, ensuring the flavors meld without breaking up the watermelon pieces.
  3. Add Dressing (Optional): Drizzle lightly with balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze if you prefer a touch of acidity and sweetness to enhance the flavors.
  4. Chill and Serve: Serve the salad chilled for the most refreshing experience, making it a perfect summer dish.

Notes

  • This salad is best served fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 2 hours before serving.
  • For a vegan version, substitute feta cheese with a plant-based cheese alternative.
  • Adjust the amount of red onion according to your preference for pungency.
  • Balsamic glaze adds a sweeter and thicker dressing compared to balsamic vinegar.
