Watermelon salad with feta and avocado – a fresh salad for barbecues and summer lunches.
There is hardly anything that tastes more of summer than a cold, crisp and juicy watermelon salad.
This version is one of my personal favourites – full of sweet watermelon, creamy avocado and crumbled feta – topped with fresh basil, lime, olive oil and a good grinding of pepper. A simple but seriously good combination that just works every time.
The salad is perfect alongside barbecued food, for lunch in the garden or as a light dish for summer guests. It has it all – freshness, richness, sweetness and salt in beautiful balance. Ideal for hot days and relaxed summer meals with friends and family.
Tip: The salad tastes best when served freshly made. If you want to prepare it a little ahead, drizzle the avocado with a little extra lime juice – it will stay lovely and green for a couple of hours in the fridge.

Hej
Kan salaten laves et par timer før servering? 🙂
Hej Maria
Hvis du sørger for at give avocadoen noget lime, så den holder farven – så kan du sagtens lave den et par timer før 🙂
Warm wishes, Dianna
