Salads


▢¼ medium watermelon
▢2 Tbsp olive oil 30 mL, divided
▢2 cups arugula 30 g
▢½ cup crumbled or cubed feta cheese 95 g
▢½ cup sliced red onion about ½ of an onion
▢2 Tbsp chopped fresh mint
▢2 Tbsp chopped fresh basil
▢1 tsp balsamic vinegar 5 mL
▢1 tsp dijon mustard
▢¼ tsp each salt and pepper

Cook Watermelon: Cut watermelon into 1 inch (2 ½ cm) thick slices and remove the rind. Brush watermelon with 1 Tbsp of the olive oil. In a grill pan, saute pan, or on the grill, cook watermelon at medium/high heat until char lines develop and watermelon lightly browns, about 3 minutes each side. Remove from heat and chop into large chunks.
Assemble: In large bowl, gently combine watermelon, arugula, feta, red onion, mint, and basil. Whisk together remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil, balsamic (more to taste), mustard, salt, and pepper. Gently combine with the rest of the salad. Serve warm or chilled.
