Watermelon Feta Salad

I wanted to take advantage of the watermelon itself as a holding vessel for the feta salad. This was a nice combination of salty and sweet; perfect summer salad.



Watermelon Feta Salad


- 1 x watermelon
- Feta cheese crumbles (either regular or flavored)
- Arugula leaves
- 1 x small purple onion
- Balsamic vinegar
- Olive Oil

  1. Cut 1-2" thick whole cross-sectional slices from the watermelon.
  2. Using a round cutter, stamp out cylinders.
  3. Take a paring knife or melon baller, and remove flesh from a concentric inner circle of the watermelon cylinder.
  4. Separately, dice the arugula and purple onion. Mix with feta.
  5. Using a small teaspoon, scoop the feta mix into each watermelon "cup".
  6. Make a balsamic vinegar and olive oil emulsion. Either with an eye-dropper or another teaspoon, drizzle a little of the emulsion onto each watermelon cup and feta mixture therein.
  7. Enjoy!
