- 15 leaves fresh mint
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced

The Summer Salad
I'll never forget the first time someone put watermelon and feta together on my plate. I was skeptical. Then I took a bite and genuinely understood what "flavor revelation" meant. Sweet, salty, fresh, and utterly addictive.
How to Make It
Cube the watermelon and arrange on a platter. Crumble the feta over the top. Scatter with thinly sliced red onion, torn mint leaves, and a handful of olives if you like.
Drizzle with lime juice, good olive oil, and a crack of black pepper. That's it.
Tina's Tips
- Cold watermelon is key — refrigerate it first for maximum refreshment
- Kalamata olives make an incredible addition
- A balsamic reduction drizzle takes it to another level
- This is the perfect BBQ side dish
