That tasty watermelon salad...
I have been meaning to post this up since the beginning of August, when I threw it together for my mom's birthday party barbecue... It went over so well, I thought I had better make a note of what went into it. I know that watermelon is just past its season now, but at least this way I won't forget how to make it. Don't be afraid of the combo of feta with fruit- watermelon loves a little salty!!
Ingredients:
I medium watermelon, cut into medium/small cubes (seedless works best)
1 lemon, juiced
1 cup of fresh mint, chopped
1/4 cup of honey,
3/4 cup of feta cheese, cut into small cubes
Directions
Place cubed watermelon in a mesh strainer, cover and place strainer over a bowl in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (up to overnight), so that excess juice drains off.
In a large bowl, mix together watermelon, mint and cheese. Separately, whisk together honey and lemon juice to create a dressing. Pour dressing over salad and serve immediately.
This should make enough salad for 10 people with leftovers.
