Instructions

Preparation

Chop the watermelon into bite-sized cubes. If it’s super juicy, let it sit in a colander for a minute.
Slice the cucumber into half-moons, not too thin.
Slice a little red onion. Soak in cold water if you find it too sharp.
Toss the watermelon, cucumber, and onion in a big bowl.
Add crumbled feta and torn mint leaves.
Finish with lime juice, a drizzle of olive oil, and black pepper. Toss gently.

Notes

Best served fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container for 1-2 days. Drain excess liquid before serving leftovers.
