Arugula, Watermelon and Feta Summer Salad Recipe

(from here, by Ina Garten)

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice 2 lemons
  • 1/4 cup minced shallots 1 large
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 cup good olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 cups baby arugula washed and spun dry
  • 1/8 th seedless watermelon rind removed, and cut in 1-inch cubes
  • 12 ounces good feta cheese 1/2-inch diced
  • 1 cup 4 ounces whole fresh mint leaves, julienned

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the orange juice, lemon juice, shallots, honey, salt, and pepper. 

  2. Add the olive oil and shake, shake, shake. If not using right away, store the dressing (covered) in the refrigerator. I use a ball jar to make, shake and store the dressing.

  3. Place the arugula, watermelon, feta, and mint in a large bowl. 

  4. Drizzle with enough dressing to coat the greens lightly and toss it all together.

  5. Serve and Enjoy!
