Watermelon Kiwi Feta Layered Salad, crisp watermelon layered with kiwi fruit, a few blueberries, and sprinkled with a heavy dose of Feta cheese. Then wait...drizzled with a balsamic blueberry syrup! Oh! my. A summer obsession that will rock your world.
Remember the watermelon puzzle that took Pinterest by storm several years ago?
Well, I created a simpler version. Layering the salad is so much easier and quicker, and the taste is the same.
Still amazing!
The sweeter the watermelon, the better the flavor. I love the combination of the kiwi, but if you are not a fan just substitute cantaloupe, or even yellow watermelon if it is available.
I am a huge fan of Feta, and it may not be for you, so you can just leave it out or use another kind of cheese.
Make it your salad and use the combination you like. Mint and basil are a great addition too if you drizzle with a balsamic glaze.
Watermelon is still plentiful in the grocery stores and farmers markets here in Texas. This past weekend even the price had gone down from what they were earlier in the summer.
We usually cut the watermelon in half and cut up the inside into big junks and put them in a large bowl and place in the fridge.
This makes it easier and quicker to assemble for salads, smoothies, and good ole grab and go snack when you want a refreshing snack.
