It’s a blistering day and you’re sitting under a shady spot in the garden with a soft, swaying breeze, tucking into something delicious. Salty yet sweet, filling and fresh, we love a watermelon and feta salad to cool off on those hot summer afternoons. The perfect light lunch, or even as a side salad for BBQs and garden parties, this dish proves its versatility, as well as its mouthwatering taste. It also pairs well when followed by a cheeky afternoon siesta…
