Course Salad

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.
