watermelon-mint-feta salad

watermelon-mint-feta salad

So when I finally figured out what I was making for dinner : Not Just Any Grilled Portobello Mushroom Burger, I  had to solve my next problem …. What do I serve with it?  Well… I already had watermelon and I really wanted to use it before it dripped all over my fridge.  I grabbed some mint and feta while I was in the store. The sweet chilled watermelon is a perfect compliment to the salty feta cheese.  This made 6 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs watermelon chilled
  • 1/8 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves lightly chopped
  • 1/2 cup  feta cheese  – cubed or crumbled

How to:

  1. Cube or ball watermelon and set aside in a bowl.
  2. In a small bowl whisk together olive oil, black pepper and the juice of one lime
  3. Pour dressing over watermelon
  4. Add chopped mint leaves and feta
  5. Lightly toss and serve
