Refreshing Watermelon and Feta Salad with Mint

This refreshing salad is the perfect way to cool down on a hot summer day. The watermelon is sweet and juicy, the feta cheese is salty and tangy, and the mint adds a refreshing herbaceousness. The olive oil and balsamic vinegar add a touch of acidity and richness, and the salt and pepper help to balance out the flavors. This salad is easy to make and can be served as a side dish or a light lunch.

I first had this salad at a restaurant in Greece, and I was immediately hooked. The combination of flavors was so unique and refreshing, and I knew I had to recreate it at home. I experimented with a few different ingredients and proportions, and I finally came up with this recipe. I've made this salad countless times since then, and it's always a hit with my friends and family.
