Michelle Bernstein’s Watermelon & Tomato Salad With Feta and Olives
MAY 16, 2012
Ingredients & Directions
- 4 cups seedless water melon or regular, seeded watermelon, diced ½ inch (about one quarter of a medium)
- 2 large beefsteak tomatoes cut into 8 wedges each
- 2 cups ¼ inch-thick diagonal slices peeled English (seedless hothouse) cucumbers
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese, preferably French (about 4 ounces)
- 1 cup pitted Niçoise olives
- 2 Tbsp dill leaves
- Red Wine Vinaigrette (recipe on next tab)
Put the watermelon, tomatoes, cucumber, feta, olives, and dill in a large bowl. Drizzle with half the vinaigrette and toss gently, taking care not to break up the fruit and vegetables. Add more dressing if desired and toss again.
This salad can be made the night before you serve it and refrigerated, but in that case, don’t add the watermelon until ready to serve; refrigerate the watermelon separately. Let the salad and watermelon come to room temperature and toss together just before serving.
Divide among four to six salad plates and serve.
