Ingredients
  

  • ¼ seedless watermelon, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 4 mini cucumbers, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 8 ounces feta cheese, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1½ tablespoons balsamic pearls (or balsamic glaze)
  • 1 tablespoon sliced fresh mint
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • On a large plate or platter, arrange the watermelon, cucumber, and feta by alternating between them until the platter is covered.
  • Drizzle with honey. Spoon the balsamic pearls over the feta cubes, I like to keep it on the feta for a pop of color/contrast. Garnish with fresh mint. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, keep in mind, the feta is salty to start with. Enjoy!
