watermelon with mint and feta


last summer, i shared this recipe
but i love it so much, 
and summer is here in full swing

 this is my not so gentle nudge
and strong recommendation
that you should pack this
for your next picnic
watermelon, mint and feta salad
(printable recipe)
1/2 small dulcinea watermelon
4 oz feta cheese
6-8 mint leaves
olive oil
rice wine vinegar
cut your seedless watermelon into small pieces(i  like to cut it into brunoise, but that isn't necessary). cut your feta into small pieces as well.  chiffonade your mint leaves. gently toss all in a bowl and let sit for a bit in the fridge.  drain off some of the watermelon juice.  make a dressing of rice wine vinegar and olive oil...i use about 2 parts oil to 1 part vinegar but do this to your taste.  lightly toss the dressing into the salad and let chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
