Refreshing summer blend of juicy peaches, sweet watermelon, and fresh mint with zesty citrus dressing.

# What You Need:

01 - 2 cups seedless watermelon, cubed

02 - 2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced

03 - 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, torn

04 - 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

05 - 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

06 - 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

07 - 1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup

08 - Pinch of sea salt

09 - Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

01 - In a large bowl, gently combine the watermelon cubes and peach slices.

02 - Add the torn mint leaves. If using, sprinkle the crumbled feta over the fruit.

03 - In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, honey (or agave), salt, and pepper to make the dressing.

04 - Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine, ensuring the fruit is coated without bruising.

05 - Serve immediately, or chill for 20 minutes to enhance flavors.

01 -

The mint and lime wake up the fruit's natural sweetness like morning sunlight
It comes together in fifteen minutes flat, leaving more time for actually eating

02 -

Watermelon releases liquid as it sits, so add the dressing just before serving if you're making this ahead
The lime juice keeps the peaches from oxidizing, but toss everything gently so you don't break down the fruit's structure

03 -

Cut your watermelon and peaches to roughly the same size for the best eating experience
Taste your fruit first—if it's exceptionally sweet, you can skip the honey in the dressing
