This delicious, refreshing watermelon salad recipe is meant for hot summer days. With mint and lemon, it's the perfect mix of savory and sweet.

Watermelon salad is the essence of summer. The refreshing combination of sweet watermelon, cool cucumbers with a pop of fresh mint means this watermelon salad recipe is easy to make and easy to enjoy with friends and family.

Every bite of this watermelon salad is refreshing. It shows how delicious fruit can be in a savory salad. Juicy cubed watermelon pairs beautifully with cool cucumbers, fresh herbs, and, of course feta cheese. I omitted the feta as I was out. But do use it even if you have to go the store to get it! It makes all the difference.

With juicy watermelons and cucumber, you may think the dressing is unnecessary. While this watermelon and feta salad is delicious without a dressing, a simple does bring it together and enhances the flavour.

It takes minutes to throw together, and it’s incredibly refreshing. Try it once, and you’ll have it on repeat for the rest of watermelon season.
