Watermelon salad

Watermelon salad is a summer salad made with watermelon, and usually mint, feta and a simple vinaigrette dressing, with other ingredients like cucumber and red onion.[1] Olives or baby arugala can be added.[2][3] There are many variations, with some adding tomatoes and parsley together with the mint.[4] Some versions omit the vinaigrette and serve it simply with olive oil and a splash of lemon juice.[5] Goat cheese can be substituted for the feta, and additionally satsuma fruits and chopped pecans can be added to the basic salad.[6]

A patriotic version of the salad can be made for the 4th of July by arranging watermelon and white cheese in alternating rows and placing blueberries at the top left corner of the serving plate.[7]
