Do you like adding fresh fruit to your salads? I often sprinkle in blueberries and strawberries, when they are in season, and even canned mandarin oranges are a good option. Before my friend served the following salad to a large group of us two summers ago, though, I had never considered adding watermelon. This is always a refreshing salad when it's hot, so it was prefect for yesterday's 98 degree weather. We love the combination of the watermelon's subtle sweetness and the salty flavor of the feta.
