This watermelon, feta, and mint salad shows up often at our house during the summer, especially for cookouts. The quality of the olive oil and feta cheese is important, so go ahead and splurge a little. It’s refreshing, loaded with sweet and salty flavors, and takes minutes to make.

Ingredients

  • watermelon, cut into 1-inch cubes and chilled: 1 piece (3 pound)
  • Extra virgin olive oil: 0.25 cup
  • lemon juice: 2 Tbsp
  • freshly grated lemon zest: 1 tsp
  • kosher salt: 0.5 tsp
  • ground black pepper: (to taste, freshly ground)
  • ounces feta cheese, coarsely crumbled: 4 piece
  • fresh mint leaves: 0.25 cup (chopped)
