Watermelon Feta Salad

Watermelon is always a good idea in the summertime! And every year, I'm always looking for more ways to eat it. I love making watermelon salsa and a round of watermelon margaritas to go along with it! Did you know that you can grill watermelon? Now, you do. It turns it into a sweet, smoky, caramelized treat! But this dish is one of the coolest, refreshing summer salads. It's sweet and salty, crunchy and juicy, and all around so tasty. You're going to love it. Just make sure you know how to pick a good watermelon. (I don't mean pick as in harvest, I mean pick as in choose the best one at the grocery store. Okay, moving on!)

Why do people eat watermelon with feta?

There's something magical that happens when you combine sweet, juicy watermelon with salty, crumbly feta. Seriously, it is magical. The two balance each other out in the best way possible. Cucumber, mint, and roasted pistachios only add to the deliciousness and make this summer side dish undeniably fresh! 

What's watermelon feta salad dressing made of?

It's so simple you can hardly even call it a dressing. All you do is drizzle olive oil and vinegar (rice or white balsamic) over the watermelon-cucumber-mint mixture and it's practically ready to serve. But don't skip the feta and pistachios—they're important!
