My top three loves in summertime are Spaceman, ice cream and watermelon (the first two are year-round pleasers). Just when I thought I couldn’t love watermelon any more, my friend, Lori, introduced me to this watermelon salad. I have now “upped my game” in the watermelon world. Let me share…
This salad is incredibly easy to make requiring only 5 ingredients:
- Watermelon
- Pitted Kalamata Olives
- Basil
- Crumbled Feta Cheese
- Juice from a Lime
How to put it together:
- Chop all ingredients except the lime.
- Put all ingredients in a bowl and squeeze some fresh lime juice over it.
- Toss everything together.
- Enjoy!
I’m bringing this to my family’s upcoming 4th of July celebration. What is one of your favorite summertime dishes?
Just be careful you do not burn down your kitchen making this dish. Sounds pretty complicated.
More likely I’d chop a tad off a finger or something with this recipe as there is no grill/oven/stove work necessary…thankfully!
I’m a witness to your watermelon salad! I ate so much of it, I thought I was going to explode!!! So glad to have the recipe! Think I will put it together for the 4th!!
Yes, do, it is so super easy to make!
sounds delish! I’m a watermelon fiend too… although, not an olive fan so I’ll have to think of something to substitute for olives – maybe a nut of some sort. Thanks for posting!
Nuts sound interesting. Something a bit salty would be a good substitute as the saltiness of the olives is nice. Enjoy! 🙂
Great post! I’m glad I get to enjoy this salad again this week…
You can request this salad anytime! 🙂
