Watermelon Feta Salad

3.84 from 6 votes
I love salads and especially ones with big chucks of salty cheese mixed with juicy sweet fruit and crunchy peanuts. This is a quick salad that packs a big sweet salty punch.

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz seedless watermelon (cut into chunks)
  • 1/2 lb feta cheese (cut into large chunks)
  • 1 jalapeno (de-seeded, take out ribs, and chopped)
  • 1 handful mint (chopped)
  • 1 lemon (juice and zest)
  • 1 tbs honey
  • 3 scallions ( chopped)
  • 1 handful roasted salted peanuts
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch pepper

Method
 

  1. Put the watermelon, feta, mint, jalapeno, scallions, and peanuts in a bowl. 
  2. TIP: If making in advance do not put the peanuts in until you are ready to serve. This will maintain their crunchy texture.
  3. Now add to the bowl lemon juice/zest, honey, oil, salt and pepper.
  4. Mix all the ingredients together and enjoy!

Notes

Amazing made a day advance: The watermelon soaks up the spicy jalapeno and salt cheese flavor and tastes amazing.
