Healthy Recipe: Watermelon Salad

Writer: Mark PearsonMark Pearson

There are plenty of spins on the simple watermelon-feta-mint salad. We like this one from The Mediterranean Dish: an easy, fresh and super-light Mediterranean version with fresh herbs and a honey-lime dressing.

Ingredients

For the Honey Vinaigrette

  • 2 tbsp honey

  • 2 tbsp lime juice

  • 1 to 2 tbsp quality extra virgin olive oil

  • pinch of salt

For the Watermelon Salad

  • 1/2 watermelon, peeled, cut into cubes

  • 1 English (or Hot House) cucumber, cubed (about 2 cupfuls of cubed cucumbers)

  • 15 fresh mint leaves, chopped

  • 15 fresh basil leaves, chopped

  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, more to your liking

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice, olive oil and pinch of salt. Set aside for a moment.

  2. In a large bowl or serving platter with sides, combine the watermelon, cucumbers, and fresh herbs.

  3. Top the watermelon salad with the honey vinaigrette and gently toss to combine. Top with the feta cheese and serve.
