    Best Watermelon Summer Salad Recipe

    It's getting to be that time of year.  It's warming up--or at least thinking about it--and our minds are turning to salad recipes. It's inevitable to add a Watermelon Summer Salad to the must make recipes list.  I mean--watermelon salad. Feta cheese. Mint. The ingredients say it all, and what they say is YUM.

    Now, I've had a few 'best watermelon salad recipes' over the years, but I believe that this one really takes the prize--hands down.

    Really, anything berry is fair game right now--and will be for the next several months.  Be it a tasty Blueberry Tart, Chocolate Blueberry Smoothie, Strawberry Crepes, or even a delectable slice of Lemon Poppy Seed Pudding Cake with Strawberry Topping--berries scream spring and summer. And that is sweet music to our ears.

    Ingredients
     
     

    • ¾ cup halved thinly sliced red onion
    • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
    • 1 ½ quarts seeded cubed watermelon
    • ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
    • ½ cup pitted black olive halves
    • 1 cup chopped fresh mint
    • 1 tablespoons olive oil

    Instructions
     

    • Place the onion slices in a small bowl with the lime juice. The acid of the lime will mellow the flavor of the raw onion. Let stand for 10 minutes.
    • In a large bowl, combine the watermelon cubes, feta cheese, black olives, onions with the lime juice, and mint. Drizzle olive oil over it all, and toss to blend. Dig in and be prepared for a pleasant surprise!

      I can't wait for watermelon season (even though that means too much heat in the desert). This salad looks so good. I love that you use mint. Such a great combination. Thanks for sharing at the Blogger's Pit Stop.
