Ingredients
4 cups watermelon, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 large handful fresh basil, thinly sliced into chiffonade
3 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
Directions
Place the watermelon cubes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, then gently toss using your hands to combine, being careful not to crush the fruit.
Scatter the basil chiffonade and crumbled feta cheese over the watermelon mixture, then gently fold together until evenly distributed.
Serve immediately while chilled, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Toss gently before serving if preparing ahead.
