Nothing Says Summer Like Watermelon Feta Salad

Nothing Says Summer Like Watermelon Feta Salad

The MVP of summer fruit, sweet and juicy watermelon is perfectly refreshing all on its own. But, by simply adding cucumbers, mint, red onion, and tangy feta with a very simple vinaigrette (just olive oil + red wine vinegar), you've got yourself a mean summer salad. It’s the perfect balance of sweet and salty flavors that will pair perfectly with practically any summer meal (or all on its own, straight out of the bowl—I won’t judge).
