Watermelon Salad.

I can taste summer in the air… Literally.  Now that the weather is warming up, all of that fantastic summer produce is just right for the picking. Last weekend, we grilled out and brought some of our summer favorites out of retirement.  Here is one that is always a crowd-pleaser.  People ask me for the recipe, and it’s so simple, it’ embarrassing.  I even buy the pre-sliced watermelon to save time.  Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
  • 5 lbs. watermelon
  • 1/2 large red onion
  • 10 mint leaves, chopped
  • 5 oz. crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
1.) Slice watermelon into bite-sized pieces.
2.) Slice onion into thin strings
3.) Add watermelon, onions and mint into a large bowl
4.) Whisk together oil and vinegar and salt and pepper.
5.) Pour dressing over salad
6.) Add feta right before serving and toss.
