  • Author: Hannah

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups watermelon, cubed or balled

  • 2 ripe peaches, sliced or cubed

  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional, for a salty contrast)

  • 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped

  • Juice of 1/2 lime (or more to taste)

  • 1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup (optional)

  • Pinch of sea salt (enhances the fruit’s sweetness)

  • Optional: 1/4 cup cucumber slices or red onion slivers for added crunch or zest


Instructions

  • Prep the fruit:

    • Cube or ball the watermelon and slice the peaches (leave skin on for color and texture).

    • Optional: pat watermelon dry slightly with paper towel if overly juicy.

  • Toss gently:

    • In a large bowl, combine watermelon, peaches, and cucumber/red onion if using.

  • Dress it:

    • Drizzle lime juice and honey (if using) over the salad.

    • Add a pinch of salt and toss very gently to combine.

 

  • Finish with flair:

    • Sprinkle crumbled feta and chopped mint over the top.

    • Serve immediately while cold and juicy!
