Watermelon Salad

The hot summer days of July and August are a perfect time to make Watermelon Salad.  The refreshing combination of sweet watermelon, cool cucumbers, and salty feta with a sprig of fresh mint means this watermelon salad recipe is easy to make and delightful to enjoy with friends and family.

This watermelon salad is refreshing and packed with sweet and salty flavors. The fresh herbs and zesty honey-lime dressing is another level of deliciousness. You can also add chopped red onions, diced creamy avocado or Aleppo pepper flakes.

To choose a juicy watermelon, look for one with a yellow field spot that indicates it ripened on the vine. Inspect the stem that it is dry and brown. The color should be darker green with lighter stripes.

Enjoy this recipe!
