Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 300 grams (2 cups) watermelon (cut into bite sized cubes)
  • 200 grams (1 cup) Feta or Hirtenkäse (cut into bite sized cubes)
  • 50 grams (2 cups) arugula (or any other greens of choice) Thoroughly washed and patted dry
  • 1 small red onion (diced) (optional)
  • 1 medium cucumber (diced)
  • 10-12 fresh mint leaves (chopped)
For the dressing:
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly crushed black pepper

Method
 

  1. Tear the arugula leaves into bite sized pieces by hands (This helps to release more antioxidants from arugula as compared to when you chop it with a knife). Transfer to a salad bowl.
  2. Add all the remaining salad ingredients.
  3. In a small glass jar, add the dressing ingredients. Put a lid on and shake for a few minutes to combine.
  4. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well to combine. Enjoy!!

Notes

You can make and store the salad a few hours before serving. In that case, store the dressing separately and add it to the salad just before serving.
