Savor Spring with This Refreshing Watermelon Feta Salad

A Taste of Spring

As the warm breeze of spring fills the air, I find myself craving light and fresh flavors. Today, I am excited to share with you a unique recipe that captures the essence of the season in a dish that is as beautiful as it is delicious.

Ingredients:

• fresh watermelon (300g)
• crumbled feta cheese (100g)
• cucumber (200g)
• mint leaves
• lemon
• honey
• salt

Kitchen Tools:

• chef’s knife
• cutting board
• mixing bowl
• whisk

Start by cutting the watermelon into bite-sized cubes and placing them in a mixing bowl. Next, peel the cucumber and cut it into thin slices. Add the cucumber slices to the bowl with the watermelon.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the juice of one lemon, a drizzle of honey, and a pinch of salt to create a simple dressing. Pour the dressing over the watermelon and cucumber, tossing gently to coat.

To finish the dish, crumble feta cheese over the top and garnish with fresh mint leaves. The combination of sweet watermelon, crisp cucumber, tangy feta, and refreshing mint creates a symphony of flavors that is perfect for a spring day.

Once prepared, the total weight of this dish is approximately 600g. This recipe yields 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 150g. As a light and refreshing dish, each serving is estimated to be around 100 calories.

A clever tip to make this dish even more refreshing is to chill the watermelon and cucumber before serving. This will enhance the crispness of the ingredients and make the flavors pop even more.

I encourage you to give this Watermelon Feta Salad a try and feel free to customize it to your liking. Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze for a touch of sweetness, or sprinkle some toasted pine nuts for added crunch. Enjoy the taste of spring in every bite!
