Ingredients
Scale
Here’s what you’ll need to create this refreshing dish. Remember, substitutions are your friend, especially if you’re working with what’s in your pantry.
- 4 cups cubed watermelon
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
- 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- Pinch of salt
If feta isn’t your thing, try swapping it out for goat cheese for a creamier texture. And if you’re out of mint, basil works wonders too!
Instructions
Ready to bring a bit of summer to your kitchen? Let’s get started with these easy steps.
- In a large bowl, combine the cubed watermelon and fresh blueberries. Toss gently to mix them evenly.
- Add the chopped mint leaves and crumbled feta cheese on top. I find that tearing the mint by hand releases more aroma and flavor.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice and honey until well blended. Drizzle this mixture over the salad.
- Toss the salad again gently, ensuring the dressing coats all the ingredients. A pinch of salt at the end enhances all the flavors.
- Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together. This step is key—trust me!
There you have it—a quick and easy salad that’s sure to become a family favorite.
