Really outstanding flavor; a tasty new way to eat watermelon. I made it like the recipe except left out the mint.07/04/09

This dish was a hit at a church pot luck luncheon this summer. It is colorful, different and refreshing. I stuck to the recipe for the most part, but did add more roasted pine nuts since I had them. Also, use good feta (not the cheaper pre-crumbled brands from the grocery). I also served this dish to company with pork and it was the perfect accompaniment. The only downside to this dish is that it does not store well. Prepare and serve immediately. You cannot make it a day ahead and have it look fresh.08/18/08
