Total time
This salad brings me memories of hot summer nights, sitting on the porch with my dad, and eating watermelon and feta cheese. The sweetness of the watermelon and the saltiness of the feta complement each other nicely.

Notes
Tasty Tip
Watermelon is crispy and refreshing … but not when it's soggy. When serving or prepping watermelon, cut it right before serving to ensure the best taste and texture.
