How To Make watermelon salad

  • 1
    Combine watermelon, cucumber, sweet onion, fresh basil, feta cheese, and pecans,optionally, in a large bowl. Sprinkle lightly with salt, and allow ingredients to macerate in juices, refrigerated, for around one half hour. (Watermelon will release quite a bit of juice.)
