WATERMELON, FETA AND MINT SALAD WITH BALSAMIC VINAGRETTE

Steps:

• Cut watermelon in half and remove watermelon from rind; the easiest way to do this is with a melon baller. Place melon balls into a large mixing bowl. Save the rind to use as the salad bowls for a pretty presentation, scraping out to the same depth all over and cutting a small slice from the bottoms of the outside rinds so that each half will sit evenly on a table.
• Crumble feta cheese over the watermelon, chiffonade the mint (roll leaves into a cigar and slice thinly across the 'cigar' to get ribbons of mint) and sprinkle over watermelon. Grind pepper to taste over all.
• To make the dressing, blend or shake the olive oil and vinegar in a jar until emulsified. Pour over watermelon and toss gently. Chill for 30 minutes, spoon carefully into reserved watermelon rind 'bowls' and serve.
