Watermelon Salad
Ever feel like you'd just like to do something different with your favorite ingredients? Or maybe you just want a new option for a summer staple? Last summer that is how I was feeling about watermelon. I like it, I don't love it. I don't really enjoy eating hunks of it and I am not a fan of a juicy chin. I had a large watermelon in the fridge and needed an option for it. I did some brain storming and found that I liked basil and watermelon together and I enjoy feta and balsamic vinegar with my basil...a little crunch added from some sliced red onion try it all together...and what you have is a summery salad! Be brave and try it! It's really quite refreshing!
Watermelon Salad
1/2 of a large watermelon, cut into chunks, I used seedless
1/4 - 1/2 of a red onion, sliced
1/2 Cup of feta, crumbled
2 T balsamic vinegar
1 lime, juiced (about 2 Tablespoons or so)
12-15 fresh basil leaves, chopped
Combine all ingredients and chill before serving.
