I love watermelon salads like this Watermelon Caprese. It’s that salty-sweet combination that’s so good and will keep you cool as a cucumber during those dog days of summer.

This is the ONLY salad I want in the summer when it’s hot outside. During those sultry summer months, I usually make my Watermelon salad with arugula, feta and red onion, but I love this new combination with cucumber, mint and olives as an alternative. It comes together very quick and is perfect as a light lunch or side dish.

Double this for a crowd, or cut it in half if you want to serve two. This makes a great side dish to grilled chicken, or seafood.

  1. Absolutely fantastic! I didn’t have balsamic glaze, so I simmered some balsamic vinegar and that worked well. Used fresh basil instead of mint as it was what we had on hand. So good!

  2. Surprise, Surprise, surprise, had all the ingredients except the olives. The salad came together very quickly. I was looking for something different for lunch, Instead of the mint I used basil paste and in [lace of the olives I used diced red onions. Salad was delish. I will be making this salad for lunch quite often.

  3. Today was an awfully hot day here in Vienna and this recipe was just perfectly refreshing. I was surprised how delicious the watermelon tastes with the olives and feta cheese! And so simple and quick to make. I'll definitely make it again 🙂
