Ingredients

600g Watermelon, cut into chunks

1/2 Cucumber, cut into chunks

1/2 small Red Onion, finely sliced

1/2 bunch Fresh Mint, leaves picked

100g Vegetarian Feta Cheese, crumbled

1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar

3 tbsp Olive Oil

Pinch Sugar

Method

1
Add the watermelon and cucumber chunks to a bowl, followed by the red onion. Reserve some of the mint leaves and finely chop the rest. Add the feta to the bowl along with the chopped mint leaves. Season with salt then mix. Store in the fridge until ready to transfer to a serving dish or container.
2
To make the dressing, mix the vinegar, oil and sugar with a little salt and pepper.
3
When ready to serve, drizzle over the dressing. This is best done at the last minute so the salad doesn’t go soggy.
