Notes
Add more dimension or flavor to the watermelon feta basil salad by adding cubed cucumbers and/or sliced raw red onions.Not a fan of basil? Mix up the flavor with some fresh mint or fresh cilantro (for a more Mexican flavor) instead.Want a bit more fruit in the salad? Add fresh blueberries or blackberries for a bit fruitier flavor/feel.This salad is better consumed the same day as when you prepared it — although it can sit in the fridge for up to 6 hours to chill or if you want to prepare it a bit more ahead of time.
