Watermelon & Feta Salad

Watermelon + Feta Combo

The combination of feta and watermelon might sound unusual at first, but it’s a match made in summer salad heaven. The sweet, juicy watermelon contrasts beautifully with the salty, tangy feta, creating that perfect sweet-savoury balance we all crave. Watermelon brings hydration and natural sweetness, while feta adds creaminess and a punch of flavour. When paired with fresh mint and a drizzle of balsamic, this combo becomes incredibly refreshing and full of character. It’s a simple yet clever mix of textures and flavours that turns humble ingredients into something really special.

Ways To Enjoy It

As a refreshing side dish: Perfect alongside grilled meats or fish at a barbecue or summer picnic.
Make it a main: Add cooked quinoa, couscous or lentils to turn it into a more filling salad.
As skewers: Thread watermelon, feta, mint, and prosciutto onto small skewers for a fun and portable party bite.
With added crunch: Top it with roasted almonds, pumpkin seeds, or croutons just before serving for extra texture.
