Ingredients
- 1 pound watermelon cubed
- ½ cup feta cheese crumbled
- ½ cup onion thinly sliced
- ¼ cup basil or mint, chopped, fresh
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
- black pepper to taste
Balsamic Reduction
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon coconut sugar
Instructions
- Add balsamic vinegar and coconut sugar to a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a slight boil and reduce by half, about 6-8 minutes; set aside and let cool.
- In a large salad bowl gently toss watermelon, onion, feta, basil, olive oil and vinegar. Taste and season with pepper.
- Drizzle balsamic reduction over salad just before serving. Serve immediately with a slotted spoon because the salad becomes juicy as it sits.
Notes
- Vegan option: If you need this salad to be vegan you can totally opt out of the feta cheese or use a dairy-free feta.
- Storage: This watermelon salad is best served fresh, but it will keep for a few days if you make it in advance. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
