Ingredients
  

For the Salad

  • 12 oz red watermelon or yellow watermelon, small dice
  • 12 oz red tomato or yellow tomato, small dice
  • 12 oz fresh blueberries

For the Dressing

  • 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 Tbsp lime juice
  • 1 Tbsp honey
  • 1/2 Tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 Tsp black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp basil, chiffonade
  • 2 Tbsp mint, chiffonade
  • 3-4 Tbsp Feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions
 

  • Dice the watermelon and tomatoes and set aside. After the melon has rested, discard or re-purpose the watermelon/tomato juice.
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together oil, lime, honey, salt and pepper. Prepare the basil and mint at service time, to prevent browning.
  • Add blueberries to watermelon and tomatoes.
  • Dress the melon salad with the prepared dressing. Stir in the herbs and cheese. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired.

Notes

  • If possible, select watermelon and tomatoes in contrasting colors. (I couldn’t find any yellow tomatoes or melon at my store, but it still came out great!)
  • If you are not serving all of the salad right away, you may want to add the cheese as a garnish when serving, so it doesn’t get mushy.
