Savoring Summer: A Refreshing Watermelon Feta Salad Recipe

Sharing a Summer Delight

Today, I am excited to share a delightful and refreshing summer recipe that never fails to put a smile on my face. This dish is perfect for warm days spent with loved ones, enjoying the sunshine and good food.

Ingredients:

• watermelon, cubed
• feta cheese, crumbled
• cucumber, thinly sliced
• fresh mint, chopped
• balsamic glaze
• baby arugula
• cherry tomatoes, halved
• extra virgin olive oil
• salt and pepper

Kitchen Tools:

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

To start, combine the watermelon, feta cheese, cucumber, mint, arugula, and cherry tomatoes in a large mixing bowl. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the balsamic glaze, extra virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper until well combined. Drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss everything together with salad tongs until evenly coated.

Once the salad is well combined, transfer it to a serving bowl and garnish with a few extra mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of flavors and textures in every bite.

This summer salad weighs approximately 1200g, making enough for about 4 servings. Each serving is around 300g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per portion.

One unique tip to enhance the flavor of this salad is to add a sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper just before serving. The heat of the pepper pairs wonderfully with the sweetness of the watermelon and tanginess of the feta, creating a delicious contrast in every bite.

I hope you give this summer delight a try and make it your own with different ingredients or seasonings to suit your taste. Enjoy and happy cooking!
