The epitome of summer! Such a refreshing salad with few ingredients — fresh watermelon, arugula, mint, feta, green onion and a simple dressing of olive oil, lemon juice and honey. I’ll be making this all summer.
Recipe
2 T. lemon juice
1/4 c. olive oil
1 tsp. honey
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
4 c. watermelon, cubed 1-inch, cold
2 c. arugula
3/4 c. feta cheese, crumbled
1 green onion, thinly sliced
2 T. fresh mint, chopped
In a large bowl, whisk the lemon juice, oil, honey, salt, and pepper until emulsified. Add the watermelon, arugula, feta, scallion and mint, and toss until evenly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary, and serve immediately.
To enjoy this salad for a few days, make the dressing and store in a small container. Keep the salad ingredients separate in the fridge, then combine them in a serving bowl, and to each serving add about 1 T. of the dressing and toss.
