On the hottest summer days, this light salad offers simple, nourishing refreshment. It's a favorite for weekend BBQs and late-summer potlucks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Watermelon<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It's a gift that, during the hottest days of summer, melons are at their peak. Their refreshing qualities soften the blow of summer's heat while also supporting hydration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we love to eat huge slices of watermelon as desserts, there's something else I like too: watermelon salad. It's a savory-sweet combo of watermelon, salty feta cheese, chilies, fresh lime, and herbs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recipe at a Glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It takes less than 10 minutes<\/strong> to put the salad together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watermelon is loaded with key fat-soluble nutrients<\/strong> (like lycopene and beta-carotene). A little olive oil goes a long way in helping you absorb them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It tastes delicious<\/strong>. Salty feta brings balance to sweet watermelon while lime lends acidity and jalape\u00f1o brings a little heat.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
