Watermelon, cucumbers, and feta cheese are the main attractions of this refreshing salad. This salad is quick, fresh, and very flavorful. Take it up a notch by topping it with a lime vinaigrette and basil or mint as a garnish. It’s ideal for any summer BBQ or party.

**Tip:** Since watermelon and cucumbers are high in water, it’s best to eat this the
same day as it was prepared. If you have leftovers, store in a
tight-lid container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
