This was very much a “to taste” recipe since I didn’t really measure anything out exactly, but it included:

  • 1/2 a seedless watermelon, diced
  • 1 block feta
  • 1 shallot, diced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • basil to taste
  • mint to taste
  • olive oil to taste
  • balsamic vinegar to taste
  • sea salt and pepper (to taste)

With how unspecific it was it came out fantastic. I’m actually kicking my past self for not trying it sooner it’s so good. Will probably pull this out again for the 4th

when it’s scorching hot outside and you eat this salad fresh out of the fridge, that’s like heaven 👌

This right here. For most of my cooking life, I thought this salad sounded disgusting, or at best, a waste of ingredients. Oh, so many summers I missed out on this tastiness because I was stubborn. If you enjoy any of these flavors individually, do yourself a favor and give this a try. There is a lot of leeway and flexibility with the ingredients, so you can swap in different components to use what you have in the fridge.

You’ve inspired me and it’s now cooling down in the fridge. I’m very curious.
