Ingredients
4 cups cubed watermelon
2 cups diced English cucumber
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 tsp mineral salt
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chopped mint leaves
Instructions
Finely dice English cucumber into 1/4″ pieces
Crumble feta cheese into small bite-sized clusters
Whisk olive oil, lime juice, and salt to make vinaigrette
Combine watermelon, cucumber, and feta in a bowl
Drizzle vinaigrette over salad
Sprinkle chopped mint just before serving

Notes
Use seedless watermelon for best texture
Add mint immediately before serving to preserve aroma
Apulia-style feta holds structure better than soft brined varieties
For extra brightness, add 1/2 tsp honey to dressing
