Sweet Watermelon, Feta, and Mint Salad

This salad is little unexpected and untraditional, but I promise it will wow your guests. It tastes like summer!

A fun fact about this salad: I made it the night before my wedding for our casual rehearsal dinner. (If you're worried about this being an authentic Alberta meal or not, don't worry... my husband-to-be was outside grilling steaks).

My mother had never heard of this salad, and she thought it sounded crazy. She asked if I wanted to reconsider and something more traditional.

I said, "Nope. Just watch, everyone will love it!"

And indeed they did!

Here's how to try it yourself:

Chandler Honey Orange Grove Watermelon Salad with raw Canadian honey

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons Orange Grove Chandler Honey
1/2 large watermelon, diced into appropriate chunks
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoons of orange juice
1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese (I've been loving Canadian feta!)
1/2 bunch (about 1/2 cup) of chopped fresh mint
1/4 red onion, chopped finely
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

In a large salad bowl, whisk the Orange Grove Chandler Honey, oil, orange juice, salt and pepper.
Add the watermelon, feta, mint, and onion. Toss.
Serve right away or let sit in the fridge for a few hours before serving. Don't be afraid to double this recipe and make too much, as this keeps wonderfully as leftovers for the next day!
