Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized honeydew melon
- 1 large English cucumber
- 0.5 cup feta cheese
- 0.25 cup fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Cut the honeydew melon in half and remove the seeds. Using a melon baller or a spoon, scoop the melon into bite-sized pieces and place them into a large mixing bowl.
Wash the English cucumber thoroughly, then slice it into thin rounds or half-moons, depending on your preference. Add the cucumber to the bowl with the honeydew.
Crumble the feta cheese and add it to the bowl.
Rinse and pat dry the mint leaves. Roughly chop them and add to the bowl with the other ingredients.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Drizzle the dressing over the honeydew mixture and gently toss everything together to combine and coat evenly.
