It's not really fair to call this a "recipe", because it's one of the easiest salads in the world to make. Chop up three things, toss them into a bowl, and you're good to go.This salad is a popular Mediterranean combination, but it's rare to find it here in the US. I love anything with a salty-sweet flavor profile, and this dish fits the bill perfectly. This is the dish to serve at backyard barbecues, picnics, and happy hours. I even served it at my birthday!
Since there are only three ingredients to this salad, it's important that each one is top notch. Be on the lookout for ripe watermelon (look especially for a cream or green-colored bottom, and tapping the watermelon should make a sound reminiscent of a drum). Splurge a little bit on the feta, and pick up some fresh mint at the Farmer's Market.
Watermelon, Feta, and Mint Salad
Feel free to multiply the recipe as necessary to fit the party you're serving
1 cup watermelon, cubed
1/3 cup feta, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped mint
Toss ingredients in a bowl. Let sit for at least an hour so that ingredients can come to room temperature. Enjoy!
