watermelon salad recipe

Fresh watermelon and cucumber salad with red onion, mint leaves, and jalapeño! A refreshing plant-based side for summer and beyond! Just 10 ingredients and 20 minutes required.

Minty Watermelon Cucumber Salad (Vegan)

olive oil ((if oil-free, omit))

Tbsp lime juice ((1 large, juicy lime yields ~3 Tbsp))

lime

tsp sea salt

maple syrup

watermelon,

cucumber,

red onion

mint leaves

- 1 thinly sliced jalapeño pepper ((or sub 1/4-1/2 tsp red pepper flakes))

pepitas pistachios

vegan feta crumbles

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, lime zest, salt, and maple syrup.

To a large bowl, add the watermelon, cucumber, red onion, mint, and jalapeño. Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss to coat. Add pepitas (or pistachios) and vegan feta (optional) and toss gently until just combined (avoid over-stirring). Taste and adjust as needed, adding more salt or vegan feta for saltiness, jalapeño for heat, lime juice for acidity, or mint for freshness.

Best eaten fresh — leftovers become soggy and mint discolors with time. Not freezer friendly.

Our sweet and juicy watermelon salad will make you feel refreshed on a hot summer day.

olive oil, (extra virgin)

lime juice

English cucumber, (cubed (1 medium))

Dressing

Using a large mixing bowl, add the cubed watermelon, cubed English cucumber, and mint leaves.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad. Carefully toss the dressing and salad together.

Sprinkle the feta cheese over the top of the salad and serve immediately.
