    I have to admit the first time I was offered watermelon and feta salad, I did not want to try it. I do love both watermelon and feta but had never tried them together. I put the tiniest piece on my fork and slowly put it in my mouth. The flavours exploded in my mouth. All my senses say it should not work but am I glad I was wrong.

    I just made this and oh man is it refreshing and delicious! It's so good! As a kid my family would sprinkle salt on watermelon. Sweet and salty has always been my favorite combination.

    Yum. I love watermelon salad. I usually make mine with watermelon, feta, arugula, fresh mint and parsley, pickled red onion, pink Himalayan salt, and a little balsamic vinaigrette. Such a good side dish for salmon...I’ll try it out her way though!

    If you use the backside of the blade when you scrape things in salad; your knife will keep its sharpness much longer and you won’t be doing damage to the blade.

      I like chatting with nice people online as well, but with all due respect, there are so many recipes that call for onions that I can't see how they can be avoided. As far as I know, allergy to onions is extremely rare. From marinades to stews , soups, and ragouts, I can't even think of a recipe where onions are optional!
