12 - Greek Farmer’s Salad with Watermelon
Instead of vine-ripened tomatoes- like the Greeks make it- I’m adding a ripe, seedless watermelon. The sweetness of the melon replaces that which you would’ve gotten from the tomatoes while adding more texture to the dish. Be sure to use a personal-sized, seedless watermelon for this salad. Picking seeds out while eating is the pits- all sorts of pun intended.
