Ingredients

• 200 grams watermelon
• 1 medium cucumber
• 100 grams feta cheese
• 2 tablespoons mint leaves
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by removing the rind and seeds from the watermelon. Cut the watermelon into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1.5-inch in diameter.

Step 2

Slice the cucumber in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to gently scoop out the seeds, then slice into thin half-moons.

Step 3

Crumble the feta cheese into smaller chunks. You can use a fork or your hands to achieve the desired texture.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the watermelon cubes, cucumber slices, and crumbled feta cheese.

Step 5

Chop the mint leaves finely and add them to the salad mixture.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined to make the dressing.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the watermelon salad and gently toss everything together until all ingredients are well-coated with the dressing.

Step 8

Transfer the salad to a serving platter or bowl and garnish with a few more fresh mint leaves, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before serving for an extra refreshing experience.
