I first tasted this salad at Greek Restaurant, and I loved its contrasting flavors - tangy and creamy.
The next time I brought watermelon, I decided to make this salad I also added mint because it is also a summer herb and adds a refreshing cooling flavor during warm summers.
This can be served as an appetizer or as a salad.

Method
- Soak onion slices in a small bowl with the lime juice. The acid of the lime will mellow the flavor of the raw onion. Let stand for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the watermelon cubes, feta cheese, black olives, and onions with the lime juice,b balsamic vinegar and mint. Drizzle olive oil over it all, and toss to blend. Garnish with mint leaves. Refrigerate and serve.
