Ingredients
3 lbs watermelon -- pits and rind removed, cut into 3/4" cubes
3 tablespoon lime juice
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
6 ounce feta cheese -- crumbled (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup cilantro -- packed
1/3 cup pine nuts -- toasted
Instructions
Place the melon pieces in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the
lime juice, oil, sugar, salt, and pepper. Pour dressing over melon.
Toss gently to coat. Add the feta, cilantro, and pine nuts and toss
just to blend. Serve chilled.
Variation: Add 1 1/2 cups cubed tomatoes, fresh crumbled goat cheese,
and chopped fresh mint leaves to the dressed melon cubes. And when
you're in the mood for a bit of crunch, try substituting 1/3 cup
toasted peanuts, cashews, or pecans for the pine nuts.
Recipe Notes
Here in the Hamptons the peak season for melon is August. This
gorgeous, cool salad is an excellent way of combining sweet and savory
with surprising effect.
