Minted Watermelon Salad with Feta and Tomatoes:
Huh? Does this salad combo sound wacky enough for you? I admit this watermelon salad is quite a stretch from the way watermelon is usually enjoyed: only one small good problem— watermelon salad is fabulous, so go for it! You must have noticed as I did that seeded watermelon is much tastier than the “convenient” and bland seedless hybrid. I recommend using the familiar watermelon; just spit out the seeds discreetly, OK?
Just one more wonderful thing while you are making watermelon salad: did you know you could juice watermelon, rind and all?
Watermelon juice: Who knew?
Delicious, and a nutritional powerhouse!
