While visiting a famous hotel, I tried a watermelon salad with feta cheese. No lettuce just 1-inch cubes of watermelon sprinkled with feta. It was so yummy! The trick is to serve it cold! I had it out by the pool on a hot summer day and the watermelon got a little bit warm and it just wasn’t as tasty.
They had a drizzle of balsamic glaze over it. Which is yum! I never thought to make this into watermelon skewers. The perfect watermelon feta skewers on a serving platter on a hot day and it’s just the right treat. But remember to keep it cold!
