Ingredients

  • 3 cups chopped watermelon (3/4-inch chunks)

  • 1 cup chopped cucumber (1/4-inch chunks)

  • ½ cup ATHENOS Traditional Crumbled Feta Cheese

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette dressing

Directions

  1. Combine ingredients.

Purchasing Cucumbers:

Look for cucumbers that are dark green and firm; small bumps on the skin is normal.

Nutrition Bonus:

Prepare this cool, refreshing salad on a hot summer day. As a bonus, the watermelon is a good source of both vitamins A and C.

Note:

Instead of buying a whole watermelon to get the 3 cups chunks needed to prepare this recipe, you can purchase either a miniature watermelon or pre-cut watermelon pieces from your supermarket.
