Watermelon And Feta Cheese Salad

Serves 4
Recipe By: Anna Pump
Published in: Summer On A Plate

3 lbs watermelon -- pits and rind removed, cut into 3/4" cubes
3 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
6 ounce feta cheese -- crumbled (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup cilantro -- packed
1/3 cup pine nuts -- toasted


Place the melon pieces in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the
lime juice, oil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Pour dressing over melon. Toss
gently to coat. Add the feta, cilantro, and pine nuts and toss just to
blend. Serve chilled. Variation: Add 1 1/2 cups cubed tomatoes, fresh
crumbled goat cheese, and chopped fresh mint leaves to the dressed melon
cubes. And when you're in the mood for a bit of crunch, try substituting
1/3 cup toasted peanuts, cashews, or pecans for the pine nuts.

Recipe Notes Here in the Hamptons the peak season for melon is August.
This gorgeous, cool salad is an excellent way of combining sweet and
savory with surprising effect.
