Watermelon Arugula and Feta Salad
Description
Watermelon Arugula and Feta Salad blends chilled, seedless watermelon cubes with fresh arugula leaves and crumbled feta cheese. The addition of very thinly sliced red onion introduces a subtle pungency, which complements the sweetness of the watermelon. A simple vinaigrette of balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper ties the ingredients together with a tangy finish. The salad is assembled by washing and drying the arugula, whisking the dressing, and tossing all elements lightly before serving. This combination provides a crisp, juicy texture balanced with creamy and slightly salty feta. It can serve as a light appetizer or a refreshing accompaniment to grilled proteins or warm-weather meals.
