One of the many reasons I love watermelons is because this beautiful, pink fruit is so versatile. It tastes great on its own as a sweet and refreshing snack, but also pairs well with savory flavors to create unique salads. In this recipe the sweet fruit is balanced with tangy feta cheese and black olives. Toss in a few crunchy pumpkin seeds and you have a fantastic summer side dish!
Here is what you will need:
-Watermelon
-Feta cheese
-Black olives (I also like Kalamata’s from Lindsay Olives!)
-Pumpkin seeds (Sunflower seeds also taste great!)
Watermelon and Feta Salad (click here to view and print recipe)

4 ounces crumbled feta cheese
1/2 cup sliced black olives
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
Cut watermelon into cubes and remove any seeds. Mix the watermelon, feta, black olives and pumpkin seeds. Cover and chill the salad for 30 minutes before serving. Serves 4.
