dysfunctional chef copyIt’s time to join your favorite Dysfunctional Chef as she cracks open  the summer salad recipe book, isn’t it?  A simple, refreshing, healthy meal in less than 15 minutes sounds ideal to me.  Ready, set, don’t cook!

Crisp, Cool and Quick:  Watermelon and Cucumber Salad. 

Ingredients:

6 cups watermelon, cut into cubes
1 cup watercress, chopped
1/2 cup Vidalia onion, sliced thin
1 medium English cucumber, sliced thin*
2 tablespoons fresh mint, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

*English Cucumber is a variety of cucumber that is generally sweeter than your regular cuke.  It is longer, thinner, and its seeds are tiny.

Instructions:

Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl.
Whisk together lime juice, olive oil and salt.  Dress the salad.
Sprinkle with feta cheese.

Serve!
