This is a fabulous salad for this time of year as all the ingredients are as fresh as you can get. I adapted the recipe from www.feastingathome.com. I added the Feta dressing recipe to this as I didn’t want the feta in the salad, skip the dressing and feel free to add crumbled Feta right to the salad for an even easier preparation! I served mine on a bed of arugula, spinach would work or eliminate it completely its a pretty salad and looks great on its own. To finish it off sprinkle with Sumac and serve.

Cube Watermelon
Cut Cucumber into chunks
Thinly slice Red Onion (soak in water to remove harsh onion taste)
Chop fresh herbs
Mix Oil & vinegar,salt & 1 pinch of Sumac,
Gently toss all ingredients together with Oil & Vinegar dressing
Serve in a large bowl or on a large platter so the Watermelon doesn’t get smashed
Keep cold and serve Feta dressing on the side
