WATERMELON FETA SALADWatermelon Feta Salad will give your senses a tingling buzz, instantly transporting you to a balmy Greek summer evening lazing away at a waterside taverna. The colours of the bright red melon and dazzling snow white feta, with a mix of black olives creates a beautiful contrast. Greeks love salads, especially ones with different tastes and textures. A favourite snack of young Greek children is a chunk of watermelon, a chunk of feta and a thick slice of bread, eaten together. This is the grown up version in a salad! Watermelon and Feta Salad is great served as an appetizer or a side salad.
