Ingredients

  • One medium sized watermelon, about 7 lbs
  • Zest and juice of 1 lime
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint, chiffonaded (sliced into thin ribbons)
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta

The Riffs, Subs + Swaps!

  • The Lime: Sub in lemon zest and juice, or a splash of champagne vinegar.
  • The Mint: Any soft, tender herb is a great swap. I love basil, and though not an herb, fresh, peppery arugula is a delicious addition.
  • The Feta: Crumbled goat cheese is a classic sub. Omit the cheese entirely to keep it dairy-free and vegan.
  • The Aromatic + Spicy Additions: Thinly sliced red onion or shallot adds a punchy bite. Chili powder adds subtle heat.

Instructions

  1. Cut watermelon into cubes, and toss with the zest and juice of one lime, chopped mint, and crumbled feta, and serve.
