Juicy grilled watermelon, crisp arugula, and tangy feta come alive with Basil Crush Olive Oil and Watermelon Mint Balsamic. Finished with fresh mint and a hint of red onion, this vibrant salad is summer on a plate.
Ingredients
- 2 cups arugula
- 4 small 1" slices seedless watermelon
- 2 oz crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons Watermelon Mint Balsamic Vinegar
- 3 tablespoons Basil Crush Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
- 1 small red onion, sliced thinly
- Salt, to taste
Optional Add-Ins:
- Grilled Corn
- Cucumber
- Squeeze of fresh lime juice
Directions
Place sliced onion in a bowl and cover with water and 1 teaspoon of the vinegar. Soak 5 minutes, then drain and rinse. Drain on paper towels.
Prepare a medium-hot grill. Use 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to brush the watermelon slices lightly. Grill for about 3 minutes per side, or until charred. Remove from heat and dice if preferred. Transfer, with juice, to a large salad bowl.
Add onions, feta, mint, oil, and vinegar and toss together. Let sit for a few minutes or for up to an hour before serving. Salt to taste.
Toss again just before serving over fresh arugula.
