01 -

The combination of sweet peaches and refreshing watermelon tastes like summer on a plate
It comes together in literally fifteen minutes, leaving you more time to enjoy the sunshine
The bright lime dressing cuts through the natural sweetness and makes every bite feel alive

02 -

This salad is best eaten within an hour of dressing, otherwise the fruit starts to release too much liquid
Room temperature fruit has more flavor than cold fruit, so let everything sit out for twenty minutes before serving
The feta can turn the salad slightly cloudy, so add it right before serving if you want it to look pristine

03 -

Look for peaches with a golden yellow undertone, they tend to be sweeter than bright orange ones
If your watermelon isnt very sweet, add an extra teaspoon of honey to the dressing
