Watermelon- Feta Salad

Watermelon- Feta Salad

Serves 6 as Salad.

An amazingly simple and refreshing summer salad. Obviously proportions can be adjusted however you like, and chopped tarragon makes a fine substitution for the mint. It's worth it to spend a little more and get some really good Greek ewe's milk feta for this dish.

• 6 c watermelon, seeded
  
• 8 oz feta
  
• 3 c arugula
  
• juice of 2 lemons
  
• 1 small red onion, cut into thin rings
  
• 1/4 c mint, chopped
  
• 3 T extra virgin olive oil
  
• ground black pepper
  

Cut the watermelon into thin wedges. Do the same with the feta. Lay the arugula as a bed on a wide bowl, and layer the melon, cheese and onion over it. Pour the oil and juice over as a dressing and garnish with mint and pepper.
