For the summer, I tend to stick with lighter fare like smoothies, salads and chilled soups since they (generally) require less preparation. Although they are easy to assemble it does not mean that these foods are lacking flavor and depth. In fact, I often think that a few ingredients can go a long way \u2013 much like in the case of this refreshing watermelon feta salad. It includes fresh heirloom tomatoes, watermelon, and arugula from a local farm in upstate New York paired with the savory additions of a red onion, basil and feta. The latter additions really complete the salad and compliment the sweetness of the watermelon. I hope that you enjoy this simple, fun and addictive summer salad!\n<div class=\"print-this-button-shell\">\n<button type=\"button\" class=\"print-this-button\" onClick=\"parent.location='https:\/\/mominthecity.com\/watermelon-feta-salads\/?printthis=1&printsect=1'\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Print This!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<!-- Print This Section 1 Start -->\n<div class=\"print-this-content\">\n<p><strong>Watermelon Feta Salad<\/strong><em><br>\nYield: 4 servings<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Ingredients<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>4 cups watermelon, cubed<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 red onion, chopped<\/li>\n<li>\u00bc cup feta cheese, crumbled<\/li>\n<li>2-3 cups of arugula<\/li>\n<li>1 yellow heirloom tomato (or tomato of your choice), cut up<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Dressing:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2-3 sprigs fresh basil<\/li>\n<li>1 cup balsamic vinegar<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup olive oil<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 lemon, cut up<\/li>\n<li>pinch of salt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Cooking Directions<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>Cut up the watermelon, onion, and tomato and place the ingredients in a medium bowl.
