Feta-Licious Watermelon Salad

Mareesme's Note:

This different and refreshing recipe was given to me by a friend. Herb and feta quantities can be adjusted as you wish, but this is the basic recipe.

• Total Time: 15 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 0 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• ½ cup chopped red onion
• ½ cup fresh lime juice (4-6 limes)
• ¼ whole watermelon , approximately 8 C
• ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
• ½ cup fresh mint leaves , chopped
• ½ cup fresh parsley leaves , chopped

Directions:

1. Soak the chopped red onion in the lime juice while you are prepping the other ingredients.
2. Remove rind from 1/4 whole watermelon and remove seeds. Cut into 1-1 1/2" cubes. Place in large serving bowl.
3. Gently add chopped herbs, onion mixture and feta cheese.
4. Chill and let rest 5-10 minutes, then gently mix again and serve. Salad will get soggy if kept overnight.

This is very similar to the watermelon salad that I make. I don't use parsley but use either fresh mint or fresh basil, and it's wonderful!

This salad was delicious. A new way of having watermelon. I will make this again. I used tomato and basil flavored feta cheese. Thanks for sharing. Made for Summer Salad Tag.

Very good combination with this salad. I cut it in half for the 2 of us and that worked well except I thought it had a little too much lime in it. I'll cut back on that next time. Very refreshing summer salad that I'll be making again. Thanks. Made for photo forum's Summer Salads
