Watermelon Cucumber Salad
Watermelon Cucumber Salad
Enjoy this refreshing pairing of sweet Utah watermelon, fresh basil, and locally made feta cheese. This late-summer recipe will please any guest at your table.
Ingredients
- 8 cups Ripe Seedless Watermelon Cubed (1 8 lbs Watermelon)
- 1 cup 2 Mini Cucumbers or 1/2 English Cucumber Sliced
- 2 oz Feta Cheese Crumbles
- 1/2 Lemon Zest
- 4 leaves Basil
- Sea Salt Garnish
Instructions
- Chop the watermelon into cubes.
- Slice the cucumbers.
- Chop the basil.
- Zest the lemon.
Notes
Arrange the watermelon and cucumbers on a platter. Sprinkle with feta crumbles, lemon zest, and sea salt. Taste and adjust flavors as desired. Serve immediately.
If making ahead, refrigerate the cubed watermelon separately: it releases a lot of water after it is cut. Then assemble the salad directly before serving.
