Print Recipe

Watermelon Feta Salad with Peanuts is a refreshing and vibrant summer salad featuring juicy watermelon cubes, salty feta cheese, crunchy peanuts, and a tangy lime dressing — a sweet, savory, and crunchy combination perfect for warm days.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups seedless watermelon, cubed
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp chili flakes for a spicy kick

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the watermelon cubes, crumbled feta, and chopped peanuts.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and chili flakes if using.
  3. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
  4. Sprinkle chopped mint on top and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use cold watermelon for the most refreshing result.
  • Adjust lime and salt to taste depending on the sweetness of the melon.
  • Can be made up to 1 hour ahead — add peanuts and mint just before serving to preserve crunch and freshness.
  • Try with crushed pistachios or cashews for variation.
