Watermelon Feta Salad
Description
This salad combines large chunks of watermelon with finely chopped red onion and crumbled feta cheese, providing sweetness, bite, and creamy saltiness respectively. Fresh mint leaves add a bright herbal note, enhancing the refreshing quality. The optional balsamic vinegar or glaze lends a subtle tangy sweetness that contrasts with the fruit and cheese.
The ingredients are gently mixed to evenly distribute flavors without breaking the watermelon. Chilling before serving intensifies the crisp, juicy texture, making it suitable as a side for grilled meats or a light standalone dish. This no-cook salad offers quick assembly and vibrant colors.

- 6 cups watermelon cubed
- 1/2 red onion chopped
- 1/2 cup feta cheese
- 1/3 cup mint chopped, fresh leaves
- balsamic vinegar optional, or balsamic glaze
Instructions
- In a large bowl combine cubed watermelon, red onion, feta, and mint. Stir until ingredients are well combined. Drizzle lightly with balsamic vinegar or glaze, if using. Serve chilled.
