Salad with watermelon, feta, and red onion

Savory - Salad with watermelon, feta, and red onion by Lucretia H. - Recipia

To prepare a fresh and flavorful salad, we start by gathering our essential ingredients. The first step is to cut the watermelon into small cubes, making sure to carefully remove the seeds. The watermelon is the base ingredient of this salad and provides a delicious contrast of sweetness and juiciness. Next, we move on to the Feta cheese, which we will cut into small cubes. This will add a salty and creamy note, perfectly balancing the sweetness of the watermelon. Then, we take care of the red onions. Slice them into thin rings, as their intense flavor will add an extra kick to our salad. Next comes the mint, which we will chop finely. This will provide an enticing aroma and a sense of freshness. If you have strawberries, cut them in half or leave them whole if they are smaller. This addition will bring a note of acidity and vibrant color. Don’t forget the two slices of bread that you will toast until crispy, then cut them into cubes. These croutons will provide the necessary crunchy texture to contrast with the softer ingredients. Once we have prepared all the ingredients, we take a large bowl in which we will mix the watermelon, arugula, strawberries, red onion, freshly squeezed lemon juice, grated lemon zest, chopped mint, and olive oil. The mixture should be uniform, and the flavors should blend harmoniously. Once we have achieved a homogeneous salad, we divide the mixture into two plates. On top, we add the Feta cheese, sprinkle dried thyme for an extra flavor boost, and add the toasted bread croutons, which will give a crunchy and appetizing finish. The salad is ready to be served! It is not only a healthy meal but also an explosion of colors and textures. Enjoy your meal!
