YUMMY MONDAYS: WATERMELON & CUCUMBER SALAD


This salad is so refreshing, delicious, and easy to make. Because it is different, people like it at potlucks, and you can easily adjust it to make many portions or a few. Basically, it's half watermelon and half cucumber, with a sprinkling of mint and feta cheese. The saltiness of the cheese makes a surprisingly delicious contrast to the watermelon.


Prep Time: 15 minutes


Ingredients:


2 cups chopped watermelon
2 cups chopped cucumber
1/4 cup minced fresh mint
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese


Preparation:


Mix watermelon, cucumber, and most of the mint and cheese together. Sprinkle remaining mint and cheese on top. Garnish with whole mint leaves if desired.


8 servings
