Print Recipe

A refreshing salad combining juicy watermelon, creamy feta, and fragrant mint, perfect for summer gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 regular-sized watermelon (cubed)
  • 1/4 – 1/2 cup feta cheese (crumbled)
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves (roughly chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup red onion (sliced)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Start by cutting the watermelon into bite-sized cubes. Slice the red onion thinly and roughly chop the fresh mint leaves.
  2. Combine the ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the watermelon cubes, feta cheese, mint leaves, and red onion.
  3. Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, lime juice, and kosher salt until well blended.
  4. Mix gently: Drizzle the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss everything together, being careful to avoid breaking up the feta too much.
  5. Taste and adjust: Take a moment to taste your creation. If it needs a little more sweetness or acidity, adjust the honey or lime juice accordingly.
  6. Serve cold: Chill the salad in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving for a refreshing experience.

Notes

Make-ahead tip: Prepare the salad a few hours in advance for the flavors to meld beautifully. Store covered in the refrigerator for best results.
