Watermelon Feta Salad

Watermelon Feta Salad

This Watermelon Feta Salad has just 4 ingredients and is the perfect refreshing summer salad! I love a salty-sweet flavor pairing, so the bright, sweet watermelon paired with creamy, salty Feta cheese, fresh basil, and tangy balsamic glaze is such a satisfying combination. This salad is so easy to toss together for lunch, a side dish or a snack and it’s super simple to make more servings for a crowd. Not only is this Watermelon Feta Salad easy to make for yourself, it would be perfect to make in a large quantity for a summer picnic or cookout. Everyone loves fruit and cheese! Plus it’s only 133 calories per serving or 3 WW Points (or 5 Points if following the diabetic WW plan). To view your current WW Points for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site, click here!

  1. After having a watermelon salad at a nice restaurant a few days ago I decided to see if I could find an actual recipe for one. Thank you! Yours is very similar. I haven’t made it yet, but I’ll just comment (in case someone think the add-ons sound good, that the restaurant also added some field greens, red onions, kalamata olives, and pistachios.. They also dressed it in a white balsamic vinaigrette instead of the lime and olive oil.

  2. I tried this but i grilled the watermelon and it tasted sooooo good!
