Watermelon Cucumber Feta Salad

Ingredients

  • 4 cups watermelon cubed
  • 2 small cucumbers halved and thinly sliced
  • ½ cup blueberries fresh
  • ½ cup feta cheese mini cubed, or use mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tbsp. balsamic glaze
  • ½ whole lemon
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • salt and cracked black pepper to taste
  • basil leaves for garnishing

Instructions

  • Place the diced watermelon, cucumber in a bowl first.
  • Add the blueberries, cubed feta, and basil leaves around the watermelon and cucumber pieces.
  • Season with fresh cracked black pepper and salt, then squeeze some lemon juice on top, drizzle with olive oil, balsamic glaze and serve.

Notes

  • Add a little crunch to the watermelon salad with a handful of toasted walnuts, pinenuts, or cashews.
  • You can add additional fruit to this such as strawberries or cherries.
  • Don’t like basil? Try adding mint to the salad!
  • If you don’t have lemon, you can swap for lime.
  • Avocado makes for a great addition to this watermelon feta salad.
  • I recommend juicing your lemon instead of using bottled lemon juice. Bottled lemon juice does not have the same bright taste to it.
  • Got a melon baller? You can make this salad look a bit fancier if you’d like to. You can even hollow out the watermelon with the baller then serve the salad inside of the empty watermelon!
