recipe of the week: watermelon salad
1/2 large watermelon, cubed into bite sized pieces
1-2 blocks of feta cheese, cubed the same
1 red onion, slivered into cresents
2-3 limes
place the red onions in a large bowl and cover with the juice of the limes. the onions shouldn't be drowning but there should be a fair amount of juice. leave to soak for as long as possible, at least 2 hours if not 4/5, stirring occasionally. the onions will turn a lovely translucent pink and the juice will also be a soft pink.
mix the watermelon and the feta into the onions, tossing in the pink lime juice.
season to taste (although i didn't add anything else)
eat. yummy!
this is such a bbq salad. and for those onion haters out there, i understand your disgust...but trust me, red onions soaked in lime juice turn sweet and tangy. i regretfully say that i didn't take a picture of the onions, they were really pretty.
