½
small red onion
2
limes
4
cups
cubed watermelon
1
cup
cubed feta cheese
½
cup
mint leaves
packed
2
tbsp.
extra virgin olive oil
Ground black pepper
to your taste
Instructions
Peel and thinly slice the onion, place in a small bowl.
Juice the two limes and pour the juice over the sliced onions. Reserve.
Remove the rind and chop the watermelon into even sized cubes (bite size is good).
Chop the feta cheese (I like mine in small cubes).
Wash the mint and chop coarsely.
Assemble the salad by combining the watermelon, feta cheese, mint, olive oil and the lime juice with the onions.
Toss the ingredients gently to combine, add ground black pepper to your taste.
Serve as soon as possible.
Notes
Fresh mint adds freshness to this salad. You could substitute with fresh basil but the taste will not be the same.
Salad is best served right after making it.
For a vegan watermelon salad, leave the feta cheese out or use an alternative vegan cheese.
