- 5 cups watermelon cubed
- 3/4 cup feta cubed

In a large bowl combine watermelon, feta, cucumber and basil leaves.
5 cups watermelon, 3/4 cup feta, 1 cucumber, 10 basil leaves
In a medium bowl whisk olive oil with lemon juice and honey.
1 Tbsp. olive oil, 1 Tbsp. lemon juice, 1 tsp. honey
Once the dressing is ready, pour it over the watermelon, cucumber, feta, and basil mixture in the large bowl. Gently toss all the ingredients to ensure they are evenly coated with the dressing, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- You can remove the skin from cucumber, but this is optional. Mini cucumbers usually have soft skin.
- Fresh basil leaves taste the best in this recipe, but you can use freeze dried basil as well.
- Add more salt if you prefer more flavor, feta is already salty.
