This refreshing salad is perfect for a summer picnic or barbecue. The watermelon is sweet and juicy, the feta is salty and tangy, and the mint adds a refreshing burst of flavor. The salad is also very easy to make, and can be ready in just a few minutes.
I first had this salad at a summer picnic a few years ago, and I've been making it ever since. It's always a crowd-pleaser, and it's the perfect way to use up any leftover watermelon. I've also found that it's a great way to get my kids to eat more fruits and vegetables. They love the sweet watermelon and the salty feta, and they always ask for seconds.
