This fresh watermelon and feta salad is the perfect summer meal prep solution. It’s super-simple to make and absolutely bursting with juicy flavour and crunchy textures.

The tangy feta works so well with the sweet watermelon, it’s a match made in heaven to spice up your salad game. On sunny days when you’re after something light and refreshing, this is one hundred percent the choice.

I highly recommend taking it to work for a delicious lunch you’ll look forward to all day, or making as a side for your next BBQ with friends and family. It’ll go down a treat, trust me.Serves 2
