WATERMELON MINT & FETA SALAD


Refreshing and delicious. This is exactly what this salad is. I love how juicy watermelons are, this makes them perfect for the hot weather especially when you find drinking water is boring. I have been loving Feta Cheese and so I decided to add them into a salad. The flavors of mint add a touch of freshness and vibrant colors.
