Watermelon Salad:
- 3 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
- 3 ripe peaches, sliced or cubed
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped or torn
Dressing:
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
- 1 tablespoon lime juice (or lemon juice)
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes or freshly ground black pepper for a kick
Instructions
- Prepare the Salad: In a large mixing bowl, gently toss together the watermelon cubes, peach slices, feta cheese, and fresh mint.
- Make the Dressing: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the honey and lime juice until well combined. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat everything evenly.
