Instructions
- Prepare watermelon by cutting into ½-inch cubes.
- Peel or partially peel cucumber and cut into ½-inch cubes.
- Combine melon, cucumber, feta cheese, onion, pepper (optional), oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss until ingredients are well combined.
- Mix in fresh mint if serving immediately.
- If storing to serve later, reserve mint and add just before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
- To Prep-Ahead: This watermelon salad is best when served within 4 hours of preparing. Wait to finely chop and add the fresh mint just before serving for the most flavor. You can add additional fresh mint leaves and crumbled feta for a gorgeous presentation, too.
- To Store: If you have leftover watermelon mint salad, you can store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. But please note, the watermelon and cucumber will continue to release their juices and make the leftovers pretty soggy after a few days.
- To Freeze: This is not recommended as the texture of the watermelon and cucumber will change.
