A watermelon-feta salad is one of the most refreshing, salty-sweet combinations we know. Ours is quick to prep and doesn’t need any time to marinate—simply assemble, serve, and enjoy. It’s a reviving dish for a hot day and a lovely pairing with grilled fish or chicken for dinner. Use this recipe as a guideline, adding more watermelon or feta as you like. You can even double it to serve a crowd. Don’t skip the fresh herbs—parsley, mint, or basil are all excellent in this salad, and each brings a different bright contrast.
