I love this summer watermelon tomato salad with feta cheese. It’s one of the best summer salad recipes in my opinion. You can’t beat these fresh flavors of the watermelon, cucumber and tomatoes. All this paired with the feta cheese, balsamic is a perfect combination. If you’re looking for a fresh summer salad, this is it.

I’m always looking for some summer salad recipes. This is one of my favorites. I love watermelon. It’s one of my favorite fruits of all time. With it in season during these months, I’m always trying to think of ways to use it. I’ve seen a watermelon basil salad before. This one adds the tomatoes, cucumbers and onion for added freshness.

Equipment You’ll Need

You won’t need a lot of equipment for this recipe. You’ll need a large mixing bowl with some salad tongs. You’ll also need a knife to chop your watermelon and vegetables with.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Mixed Greens:

You’ll need 3 to 4 cups of mixed greens.

Chopped Watermelon:

I used about two cups fresh sliced watermelon. I sliced it into about one inch cubes.

Cherry Tomatoes:

You’ll need some cherry tomatoes. I sliced mine in half.

Red Onion:

I just sliced a few pieces off of a red onion. No particular amount.

Cucumber:

I used about a whole cucumber. I sliced it into rounds.

Feta Cheese:

Maybe about a 1/4 of a cup of feta cheese?

Fresh Basil:

You can omit this, but I feel like it adds some added freshness and flavor.

Balsamic Vinegar:

I drizzled balsamic vinegar to the top.

Salt and Pepper:

I also topped with fresh cracked salt and pepper.
