6 servings
- 5 to 6 cups diced seedless watermelon
- 3 Persian cucumbers, sliced
- quarter of a small red onion, very thinly sliced
- juice of 1 lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
- fine sea salt and freshly-ground black pepper
- 2 to 3 tablespoons finely-chopped fresh mint leaves
- 8 ounces feta cheese
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Steps
Add the feta, Greek yogurt and olive oil to a food processor. Purée for 2 to 3 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed, until the feta is silky smooth.
Add the watermelon, cucumber and red onion to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle evenly with the lemon juice, a pinch of salt and pepper, and toss very briefly to combine.
Spread the whipped feta out evenly on a serving plate. Top with the watermelon, cucumber and red onion, and sprinkle evenly with the chopped fresh mint and a few twists of black pepper.
Serve. Serve immediately and enjoy!
