Ingredients
For the salad
- 2 Cups cubed watermelon
- 1 Cup sliced English cucumber
- 1/2 Cup cubed feta
- 1/2 avocado, cubed
- 10 mint leaves, torn
- 1/2 Cup pistachios
For the dressing
- 1/4 Cup olive oil
- 3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
- Salt (not too much because feta is salty)
Directions
For the salad
Add all salad ingredients except pistachios in a large bowl.
For the dressing
In a small jar, add all dressing ingredients and shake well.
Dress salad generously with dressing.
The lime juice should keep the avocado from browning.
Toss gently.
Add pistachios right before serving so they don't get soggy.
