Name: Cucumber, Melon and Watermelon Salad
Total time: 2 min
Ingredients: 4 cups mixed diced watermelon, honeydew and cantaloupe; 2 cups diced cucumber, seeded if there are seeds; Salt to taste; 1 teaspoon lemon or lime zest; 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice; 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint; 1 ounce feta cheese, crumbled; 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper or mild chili powder (to taste), or 1 serrano chile, minced; 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Watermelon and feta has been in vogue for some time (and forever in Greece). I decided to throw in some of my endless supply of cucumbers and mix it up with the melons. I cut the melon and cucumber into medium-size dice (1/2 to 3/4 inch), but you can also make this more like a salsa and cut the produce into fine dice.
