My aunt is the one who first introduced me to watermelon and feta together, I was hooked immediately. The crisp and sweet watermelon goes so well with the salty, creamy cheese. I love to add the cucumber for crunch, the mint for some fresh flavor and the simple honey lime dressing just pulls it all together.

What You Need:

  • Sweet Watermelon
  • English Cucumber
  • Feta (I prefer a block to cute into cubes, but you can also use crumbles)
  • Fresh Mint
  • Lime Juice + Zest
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Honey
  • Sea Salt Flakes

How to Pick a Sweet Watermelon:

  • When you pick it up, it should feel heavy for its size
  • Look for the yellow spot on the watermelon, it should be a deep, creamy yellow color
  • Choose a dull watermelon, not shiny

This watermelon cucumber salad is great on it’s own, but I also love to serve it with my lemon garlic herb chicken for a boost of protein! It also holds up well in the fridge, so you can enjoy it for a few days (3-4) without it getting soggy. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge.
