Although watermelon is a favorite summer dessert in many homes, it can also be used to make a refreshing and filling salad. This is a great dish to serve before or after the fast, since watermelon is high in water and natural sugars, which can help with hydration and energy.
It is simple, colorful, and refreshing.
Yields 4 servings.
Ingredients:
6 cups cubed watermelon
3 cucumbers, diced
200 gr. feta cheese, crumbled or cubed
1 small red onion, very thinly sliced
½ cup fresh mint leaves, roughly chopped
½ cup toasted almonds or pistachios
Dressing:
2 Tbsp. olive oil
2 Tbsp. fresh lime or lemon juice
1 Tbsp. date syrup or honey
¼ tsp. black pepper
Pinch of salt, if needed
Directions:
Place the watermelon, cucumbers, red onion, and mint in a large serving bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime or lemon juice, date syrup or honey, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently.
Add the feta and toasted nuts just before serving and toss very lightly so the watermelon does not break apart.
Taste before adding salt, since the feta may already be salty.
Serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to serve.
