No turning back

watermelon and feta cheese salad

Just over a year ago, I saw a recipe for a salad made with watermelon and feta. I remember very well thinking …., MAMMA MIA  strange mix. Then last week , this recipe came back in my mind and I thought to do a little research on the internet, to see exactly what else was used in this salad. I’m shocked, if you look on You Tube, there are many people and almost all from the USA, offering this recipe. And they all say the same thing: -the combination is very strange, but this salad is fresh and delicious, once you try it there’s no turning back  … … ..- There are some who use  olive oil and vinegar for the  dressing and others who use only oil … .. Ok at this point, I couldn’t not  try. For the dressing I thought of  using only a pinch of pepper and a twist of lime , then I added chopped  basil and mint as everyone on the web  suggests. It was a real discovery!! Well done, I do not know where and how this idea of watermelon and feta salad came from  (although the ingredients are Greek ,I’ve never seen it there), but really well done USA! I like it. I like it a lot.

Ingredients:
2 / 3 watermelon
1 / 3 feta
Mint and basil
Lime juice
Pepper
How it works: Cut the watermelon into cubes and do the same with the feta. Combine chopped mint and basil, lime juice and pepper. Mix everything.
