Cool, Refreshing Watermelon Salad
Ingredients
- 1/2 medium watermelon
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh mint leaves
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 medium red onion, very thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 ounces baby greens of choice
Instructions
- In a glass bowl, combine the olive oil and balsamic vinegar and whisk until combined.
- Slice the watermelon and remove the rind, trimming away the pale flesh adjacent to the rind, leaving only the sweet, bright red flesh.
- Cut the watermelon into large dice, or approximately 3/4-inch cubes.
- In a large bowl, combine the watermelon, onion, and any other ingredients (tomatoes, cucumbers, olives) you have decided to use, along with the mint and baby greens.
- Drizzle the salad with the vinaigrette and gently toss so that everything is evenly coated. Serve right away on chilled plates.
