Watermelon Salad with Cucumber and Feta
Ingredients
- 8 cups cubed ripe seedless watermelon
- 1 cup sliced mini or English cucumbers
- 2 oz Feta cheese crumbles
- Zest of 1/2 lemon
- 4 Fresh basil leaves chopped
- Sea salt to garnish
Instructions
- Chop the watermelon into cubes. Slice the cucumbers (if using an English cucumber, slice it into half moons). Chop the basil. Zest the lemon.
- Arrange the watermelon and cucumbers on a platter in an attractive way.
- Sprinkle with feta crumbles, lemon zest, and sea salt. Taste and adjust flavors as desired. (If you’d like, you can add freshly ground black pepper or a drizzle of olive oil.) Serve immediately.
Notes
If making ahead, refrigerate the cubed watermelon separately: it releases a lot of water after it is cut. Then assemble the salad directly before serving.
