Sometimes unusual combinations JUST WORK. Who would have thought that combining feta with watermelon would result in a cool, refreshing salad during the sunny days of summer? What I love about this salad is that though only a handful of ingredients, each one has an important role to make a forkful…absolutely PERFECT!
