Give your tastebuds what they want with this cool refreshing watermelon + feta salad. Just the perfect summer side dish.

Before I give you the recipe deets, let me give you a quick tip. If you want to serve this guests or a party, I do recommend waiting to make it just before the time you want to eat it. The longer Watermelon sits after being cut and placed into a container, the more juice comes out if it and because it’s acidic it will start to change and liquify the other ingredients.
