Watermelon salad with fresh mint and feta – refreshing, sweet and savory! This Watermelon, Mint & Feta salad will be a hit at every summer barbecue.
There are two types of people in this world: the type who love salt on their watermelon, and those who do not. I firmly believe that salt on watermelon is the only way to go! Our family has been salting our watermelon since the beginning of time. Do you salt when you eat watermelon?
Today’s recipe is SO delicious. Even if you don’t like salty watermelon, you should still give this salad a try. Red wine vinegar makes a wonderful dressing when combines with olive oil, salt and pepper, and feta cheese.
