Cucumber-Melon & Feta Salad

A fresh spin on the classic Greek salad.

Are you craving fresh and juicy salads but are looking for something off the beaten track? My cucumber-melon salad has not one lettuce leaf in the mix; rather, it’s packed with three different types of melons, plus cucumber and feta cheese. Think of this salad as the cousin of the Greek chopped salad. This tastes great on its own, or you can serve it on the side with your favourite grilled meats.
