Minty Watermelon & Feta Cheese Salad

I have so many favourite salads, but in the summer this is it for me. You could substitute any melon, any cheese. Prep time is chilling time. I put the diced melon in the freezer, checking after 20 minutes.

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
• 8  cups watermelon, seeded & diced, very cold
• 2  tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 3  tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1⁄2-1  cup  reduced-fat feta cheese, crumbled
•  black pepper (optional)
•  cayenne pepper (optional)
•  ground habanero chile pepper, for those that like a real kick (optional)

Directions

1. Chill till cold the diced watermelon (I also keep it cold when serving by placing a bowl filled with ice within the bowl containing the melon) Just before serving, in a small bowl, whisk the mint leaves, lime juice and olive oil Pour mixture over melon, tossing to coat.
2. Add any options.
3. Sprinkle crumbled cheese on top of servings (some people don't care for Feta, use your favourite).
