Cucumber, Melon and Watermelon Salad

 This recipe goes beautifully with our Cucumber Melon Balsamic in addition with BBQ Gift Pack!

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 cups mixed diced watermelon, honeydew and cantaloupe
  • 2 cups diced cucumber, seeded if there are seeds
  •  Salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon or lime zest
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
  • 1 ounce feta cheese, crumbled
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon Aleppo pepper or mild chili powder (to taste), or 1 serrano chili, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Cucumber Melon Balsamic 

 PREPARATION

  1. Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Toss together just before serving.

TIPS

  • Advance preparation: This is best when freshly assembled but will keep for a day in the refrigerator
  • Toss all the other ingredients together first and then add the watermelon at the very end to preserve its crisp, fresh appearance.
  • This is a cool (literally) recipe to showcase summer fruits on a hot day!
